I no longer have a 370 so I can't run out in the garage to check, but, IIRC, you can see the ESCL label if you stick you head down in the footwell and look up. If you have a rev D unit, as per...

IIRC, it is covered under a TSB or recall. Call other dealers until you find one that knows what they are doing. You may be able to get the ESCL into the unlocked position by beating on it. If you...

No need to keep the car all day. It's a 20 minute job. 30 if the mechanic is slow.

Dealer installed a Rev D (dated Dec 11 or Nov 12, 2012) last week and I pulled the fuse a few minutes ago. It was kinda nice hearing the whirr for a few days. :)

As far as I can tell (I didn't wait to get a letter), it's for Revs A-C (2009-2010). But, yeah, your dealer can tell you for sure.

I had mine replaced today. Once they got it into the shop, it was...

My guess is that you already have the Rev D ESCL/SLU. If you can get your head under the dash, you should be able to see the label.

'09s did not come with a cabin air filter. There is a slot in the air handler for one, but the factory didn't install them. I had one installed in my '09 (lots of pollen this time of year).

Going by what others have said about getting the recall work done, all they're doing is replacing the ESCL (SLU) with the latest revision (D).

Does anyone know whether this will be a replacement or deletion? Being that all previous revs of the SLU have failed, IMNSHO, a replacement is not a fix.
