V70 AC failure

My 2007 Volvo V70 diesel's AC has stopped working completely. No compressor engagement or any sign of operation. With only 65263 km, could it be the AC valves? Has anyone had this?

I had a similar issue with my V70. AC just quit. Did you check the AC relay and pressure switch? Simple checks before diving deeper.

Could you give more detail? Any warning signs before it failed, and what was the diagnosis?

No warning signs, just a sudden failure. It turned out to be a valve issue in the AC unit. I took it to a workshop, and they replaced the faulty valve(s). Sounds like you'll need to do the same.

Thanks, a workshop visit seems likely. I'll brace myself for the estimated 1000€ repair.
