Re: Did You Have to Replace your Evaporator at Your Expense ? 850 96

Yes, but is the equipment you mention using the possibly more corrosive R-134A? My last car's evap went bad at 45K miles. It was a '96 VW golf -also expensive to replace. I don't think the problem's limited to Volvo. Could it be that it's R-134A to blame and in the mid nineties, there weren't many evaporators that could handle the new type of freon? Has anyone researched evap failure in the newer Volvo models?
