A help requesty!!!
Dear tech and all members,
I have bought last week my Volvo 855/97 Tdi Estate (SW) and I have a very peculiar strange matter going on with it.
1st - the air conditioning is working fine…for a few minutes, after that it turns off and you can feel a warm moistened air blowing into the cabin, but when you turn of the engine for a few moments, like going to put petrol, when you start engine, the A/C goes on again, but after a few minutes it turns off and again the hot moistened air, and the peculiar A/C smell, starts again.
2nd – Yesterday evening I had to turn on the heater, and on the drivers side it was working just fine, but on the co-pilot side it was not working at all, only when you select AUTO, it blows a bit warm air on max temperature, but nothing compared to the drivers side.
3rd – Sometimes the ABS and the TRACKS light turns on, specially if you are driving on warm sunny day and if you are on traffic cue. And when you turn off engine and start it up again, the lights turn off.
Can you please give me any advice on this matter?
Also, I apologize for my English, I live in Portugal and I do not speck English the whole day.
Thanks for you’re patience
With my very best regards

RE: A help requesty!!!
Ok, thank you Tech, for beeing the "only-one" to give me a hint.
The AC compressor has been changed, and now it's ok, I even can see Pinguins running in the cockpit with the AC on
The heater motors have been calibrated in the dealer, but still it's quite the same, onle after a few long km's it blows a bit of warm air, well, should be ok with a warmer jecket...
The abs and Tracks light are ok, and sometimes braking you still feel a vibration on the pedal, but never the less it's ok. As i have been told by the dealer there might be a problem with the ignition that causes the lights to go on.
Anyway thank you once again for your tip.
