[R129 SL] SL-500 Air conditioning

[gregorio at weststargroup.net]

OK, I'll throw in my A/C story.  It blows cold, but only on the top (windshield) and side vents, but not the front vents.  Buttons are useless and do no good.  But, even here in HOT So. Cal, it still cools the thing off, just takes a few minutes.   Fun to hear others A/C woes...

    The air conditioning in my '95 SL 500 went from ice cold

    look at ? If I need a compressor , new , or rebuilt ??
    the compressor seems to be
