Exact same thing happened to me last night. My wife complained that when she had the heat on, every 10 seconds or so it would turn cold for a couple seconds, then get hot again. Did you ever get this fixed? If so, what was the problem?

thanks

 

I am still hoping someone in here has some ideas or do they all do this? this is our first winter in our 06

Thanks for the help. I'll check the serial number. I hate taking my car into the Volvo dealer since they charge $100 per hour. Ouch.

For diving, I don't dive too much anymore. I am familiar with Morehead though. I used to live in Va. Beach, I was a Navy Deep Sea Diver for a while. Now I live in central Illinois and dive mostly the local lakes and Lake Michigan. A lot of wrecks up there. Also a really good abondend mine down in misouri that is a lot of fun.

thanks for the help, I'll look into that.

 

This is my first winter with my 2006 xc90 T5 AWD and I am experiencing the same thing. It is an intermittent problem which makes it hard to diagnose. I did have a Volvo certified tech run a diagnostic and it returned faults in the two climate control fans. Since it was working fine while I was there they could not say if that was it for sure but if I need to replace the fans it will cost $590 labor included.
