Mercedes GLE Class 2015 - Malfunction of the air conditioning system despite suspected control valve

Insufficient Cooling/Heating

Air conditioning blows warm air

A/C System Not Engaging

Hey guys, I need your advice. I have a Mercedes GLE Class 2015 with a gasoline engine and just under 178,240 km on the clock. My problem is that my air conditioning system only blows warm air and the heating/cooling doesn't work properly, even getting into the A/C system doesn't work. I suspect that the problem could somehow be related to the A/C control valve. Have any of you had similar experiences and can tell me how your mechanic solved the problem? I had a really annoying experience with mine last time and am looking for tips for a better result this time. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello, I had a similar problem with my 2012 Mercedes E-Class: air conditioning leaking and only warm air. In my case, however, it wasn't the control valve that was the problem, but the condenser had failed. It was quite a challenge to change it. It was all quite stressful, but not super critical. Just uncomfortable, especially in summer. Was done in the garage last time. They found the fault, replaced the condenser and then the air conditioning worked again. Next time something like this happens, I now know what to do. Hope that helps you. See if it could be the same for you. Greetings!

Thanks for your feedback. It's really stupid that you had such climate problems too! I'm missing out on the cold in the car in this weather, to be honest. Your tip about the condenser is good, I'll definitely have that checked. Can you remember how expensive the repair was back then? And has anything else happened to the air conditioning since then? Thank you in advance if you would like to share your experiences! Best regards!

Hello, sure, no problem! After seeing the mechanic, the defect in the air conditioning control valve was repaired. The repair costs amounted to just under €495, which was for fixing the leaking air conditioning system. Fortunately, I haven't had any more problems with the air conditioning since then, everything seems to be running smoothly again. Hope this information helps you! Let me know if you have any more questions. Take care!
