Hi all,

I'm new to this forum and had a question regarding my a/c. I have a 2005 S 40 T5 and have experienced my compressor shutting off after roughly 10 minutes of use. This occurs especially in stop and go traffic. If I turn off the a/c completely for about 2-3 minutes...it will work when turning it back on but only briefly. Any ideas as to what is causing this?

Also, any idea what would work for a CD player error message? I've read where disconnecting the battery may help.

Lastly, i've experienced water puddling behind the drivers seat. I've read where it may be the sunroof drain tubes getting clog.

Please help! I recently bought this car used and love it...but need to get these problems fixed w/o getting owned by the dealership.

Thanks!

In regards to air conditioning and the water issue you can check with your mechanics, you donīt really visit the volvo dealer for this (but is recommended). I have a good mechanic here in mex...(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ... really, check it with the mechanic.

in regards to the cd audio error, wich error are you receiving?
