2006 Volvo V50 apparently must be parked in a garage. The interior flooding for our car with a sun roof stumped Volvo for a long time. Trash plugs the drain tube and the fluids then drain into the car. Finally, the problem was resolved by installing larger drain tubes from Mazdas. So far that has taken care of it. Now, to keep us on our toes, the air-conditioner works when it wants to. I am reading about that as this reply is written. Since Volvo developed the fix by using larger tubes, that would be worth fixing. Beach Volvo in Myrtle Beach could give you a lead to the information.
