[W126 Coupe] [w126 coupe] condensation from the tubes attached to the vents?

[Dick Spellman]

Yousef,

The metal fittings on the hose can be wrapped or encased in foam tube as 
well.  From the pictures, it appears your hose(s) to the ETR (Evaporator 
Temperature Regulator) Valve were replaced on your MB at some point.  
That stain on the metal casing face is where MB applied the adhesive for 
the foam block that covered the valve.  The foam is structurally firm 
and perhaps 1/4 inch (6mm) in thickness.  Anything that will prevent the 
cabin air from contacting the metal should prevent any future condensate.
