    850 Air Con High pressure valve?

    Hi Guys about to take the Volvo for a regas..to be honest I'm just interested as I will leave it to them but...
    I can clearly see the low pressure inlet valve ..open bonnet looking in to the left near the belt..but I can't for the life of me spot the High pressure valve...I'm assuming it has one?
    Thanks in advance

    Cant remember if my 850 had both or not, I remember it being near the coolant bottle or there abouts. It can be drained/filled through the low pressure side and will be just as effective many cars only have the one. Not got access to my autodata at home but if they cant see it they could refer to autodata which shows the ports. i wouldn't worry about it!

    Yep, only a LP valve as I discovered is also the case on the V70 P1 as well.

    Don't be surprised if your evaporator is leaking if you haven't already replaced it. They were known to rot when they were fairly new cars.
