: this is the first summer that i've had my 80 528i and i have a few climate control questions as i've been cooking on my daily commute.
: 1) how much would i be looking at for an AC conversion to R134?
: 2) my sunroof motor does not work. when i unzip the headliner i see two holes in the plastic - are these perhaps a way to manually crank open the sunroof? if so what tools would i need?
: 3) while driving, heat from the engine flows into the vehicle in by my feet and up through the steering column - is this normal? can this be prevented?
: any tips would greatly be appreciated -- thanks -- jc
: ps. glad to see a page like this available again!!!
I have a '79 528i and the manual crank for the sunroof is located on the right side of the trunk, right next to the sunroof motor. Yours might be different since your car is a different year. I'm not sure.
