Re: [MBZ] 124 monovalve insert?

2015-07-25 Thread Curt Raymond via Mercedes
Even if nobody is making it now it'll only be a matter of time. The things fail 
with regularity don't they? Theres a large number of 124s running around, its 
seems like it'd be silly for somebody to not make some money off them.

If Uro made it, at least we'd have the ability to fix it and sell the car before
it failed again.

As far as I know, there is no insert in the W124 monovalve, I've had  
to replace the entire thing when they fail.  Three so far...

I can't find a source for a monovalve (aka heater control valve) insert.
Plenty of places want to sell me the entire valve for $150 give or take.
EPC doesn't list it as a separate part.

Am I stuck?

That's what I was afraid of.  I may put a light on the connection, see if the 
PBU is calling for heat when I've dialed in AC, make sure the issue really is 
the valve.

Looks like a rebuilt PBU is about $150, that's less than a new valve from the 
dealer.

Those fail too.  I have two leaking heater valves.  Or is it three.


I've never had to figger out how to fix that.  On the 110/111/112, 
all I needed was  2 orings and a little water pump grease.   It has 
to be much more complex/expensive on a 123.

Are you talking about the entire valve assembly?  I don't think an insert is 
available, so if the monovalve fails the entire assembly must be replaced.

I would love to be wrong here, and be provided with a valve insert part number.

I have never found just the valve, I believe you must replace the  
whole thing.  It's not at all like the ones on the W123 and W126.
