I dun know lei , i park my car there and collect it after 4 hours .

They make the hole bigger , so can intake more air into the turbine .Something like this [rolleyes]

Neutral Newbie

Bros, my S40 recently was blowing hot air and went to quicklane for checkup and found compressor is faulty. Call Volvo and replacement is $1000 plus

 

Any other alternative to recommend? Is the air-con compressor so expensive for Volvo

 

Help [bigcry]

Air con compressor $1000 is normal for conti car

For most jap cars cost $700-800

I replaced mine as part of major overhual for $3000

 

Unless you want to get recon one for half price
