Air con question
 What is that part screwed into air con pipe? It seems to control the compressor and is it supposed to click all the time? it clicks the compressor in and out about every 5 secs. Does system have to be drained to change if it is faulty? Thanks Ian

It is a air con pressure sensor. Looks like there might be a low pressure condition in your system...

There is a software update that Volvo can do for the aircon. Normally with a constant click in/out it would indicate not enough gas in the system. Every 5seconds seems excessive and will just wear parts out quicker.
