Default ac not blowing cold

2000 C280 WITH 60,000 MILES. THE AC IS NOT BLOWING COLD. COULD IT NEED FREON? I LET THE CAR RUN WITH THE HOOD OPEN TO HEAR IF THE PUMP IS WORKING. IT RUNS THERE IS JUST NO COLD AC. I ALSO HAVE IT AS LOW AS IT GOES 52' AND LETTING IT RUN ON HIGH FOR A WHILE IT STILL WILL NOT TURN COLD. PLEASE HELP!

it probably just needs to be charged. you can get this done at nearly any garage.

that's awesome. it's good to get something free, as much as a mercedes repair can drainyou. ;]
maybe you can help me?
i have an '87 300E and, i think it said you have an '87, so i'm sure you know all about the lack of decent cup holders. heh. have you found anything that works okay? i got a little five dollar deal from wal-mart that goes between the console and the passenger seat, but since the window buttons are in the middle too it makes it kind of hard for the passenger to get to theirs. not to mention it doesn't always stay put like i would want.

also-
sometimes it doesn't go. i mean, i'll be in the middle of an intersection, going to make a left hand turn and hit the gas and it wont rev or anything. i think it might be a fuel pump issue, but i'm hoping not since it has a dual fuel pump and they run about 250 each.

any ideas would be great.

lol actually my 1987 420sel has the cupholers when you over the golve compartment and there are two that are on the door there. I dont realy care too much about cupholders becasue I dont eat or drink in any of my cars. lol I know I am weird. As far as the problem not going I would say have it takin into a private shop and have them run a code. Maybe it will come up with something?
