I have been having the same ongoing problem for a year and a half now. What ended up being the problem? I have changed the radiator, thermostate, therostat houseing, bleed the system, changed hoses and the reservoir....it feels like everything.

My 99 300m did the same thing. It started with a loud vibrating noise coming from under the hood which was intermittent at first. Eventually the noise went away and the temperature was reading close to red. I parked the car and looked under the hood. The 40 amp hi / low fan fuses both were blown. I assumed one of the two fans siezed and blew the fuses. The A/C stopped working at that time also. I ordered a replacement fan from drautoparts.com which has an ebay store. I got the fans and shroud for $123.00 with shipping! UPS tracking shows I will receive it on 7/8/08. My local mechanic will install it for $100.00.

I had the same problem a few years ago. The fuse for the fans also provides power to the A/C compressor clutch. They did not want the A/C to run with no fans. When you get the fans replaced and new fuses the A/C will work again.
