Re: Air Conditioning 2001 S60

Ok here is the latest ..low pressure 85psi high pressure 100psi. I did lose some freon when hooking up because I did not have new gauges couple tightened. The clutch is not cycling as before and center vent temps 55f and outside vents 57f

Re: Air Conditioning 2001 S60

Ok I have just checked it out and clutch and clutch plate gap is .635 which I believe exceeds the gap tolerance.

The mechanic that looked at it said it actually had too much freon in it.I don't drive the car so limited on information. All I know is it doesn't blow cold air . I can try suggestions ...

I have not taken to Volvo and the mechanic at the small shop checked the system and pressure on the high side was 150 and fan turned on and pressure on the low side was 28.
