Hi,

Got any pics?

The valves i've seen in the drivers foot well are inlet/outlet with a cable operated sliding gate - normally non AC

The AC ones i've seen are in the engine bay, exhaust side and are vac operated.

Is yours just AC or is it also climate control?

Don't want to help you find the wrong part.

{P.S might have better luck posting this in the 'wanted' section}

Like Phil says, the air-con cars have the heater valve in the engine bay.

What makes you think it should have 3 hoses on it for air conditioning?

You can just make out the heater valve on the left of this pic hidden partly by the torch. That's on my 760 but a 940 will be similar ish.

If yours is leaking into the footwell, chances are it's the heater matrix.



As you can see, two heater hose connections and a vacuum hose, not three heater hoses.
