Seeking Troubleshooting Suggestions for Overheating and A/C Issues in 2021 Volvo V90 Diesel

Hey all, got a 2021 Volvo V90 diesel acting up on me. A/C's blowing hot, and she's overheating too. I'm suspecting some fault in the electric fan or its control, maybe? Anyone faced something similar and got the fix? Would love to get your insights and experiences. Cheers!

Hey there! Had a similar problem with my 2019 Volvo S90. I'm not exactly a gearhead, but picked up some car knowledge over the years. Turned out, the bugger was the electric fan "control unit". My local workshop sorted it out, but it lightened my wallet by 480 Euro. Could you share more details about your V90 - mileage, service history etc? Would be easier to give a definite answer then. Hope this helps! Safe driving.

Hey, thanks for replying so quickly! My V90 has racked up about 51569km so far, still running reasonably smooth besides this problem. Got the last service done recently, few weeks ago, I'd say. Hope this helps to narrow things down. If it's the control unit, then I better start preparing myself for the hit on the wallet, huh? Cheers for the help!

Hey again! With your V90's mileage and recent service, it's a bit surprising for this kind of problem to arise. Must be as annoying as a squeaky belt! But yeah, based on the symptoms, it's likely to be the electric fan control unit - just like what I faced with my S90. But just to be sure, getting a professional mechanic to confirm wouldn't hurt. Plus, if it's within warranty, Volvo may cover it. If not, well... let's just say, be ready to part ways with a neat stack of Euro! Stay safe and cool on the road!

Hi again! It sure is as annoying as a squeaky belt! Your input makes sense, the fan control unit seems to be a logical suspect here. I was actually thinking about having a mechanic look at it, guess your advice seals the deal. The warranty bit is a good pointer, I'll definitely check on that. I can surely do without parting with a neat stack of Euro! Thanks again for taking the time to help out. Stay safe on the road too. Cheers!
