[wingnut2k10]

Hi everyone, just brought a lovely 1998 V70 T5 Estate,
The heating is always red hot no matter what I have it on and the A/C doesnt work. Would ReGassing the air con solve my problem, or could it be something else.


Any help/advice much appriciated, Thanks, Paul

at a guess id say the controls rnt working,
either the switch panel or the flap has co9me adrift inside the heater box,
as a temperary fix you could bypass the heater pipes under the bonnet,that will keep the heat out the cabin,
try sticking your head up under the dash each side and moving the controls and see if anything moves etc,
you may be able to manualy push the flap across to shut of the heat...
