Hello, Fellas
Got White 2016 Volvo that has air system problem.
I heard these truck (white 2016 Volvos) have this problem.
The problem:
Its governor is attached to Air Driver and it is cutting off (or purging) every 30 seconds to 1 minute. When it is snowing and temperatures are more or less freezing, it stops purging and air compressor pumps constantly so much so that my safety valve on air tanks start releasing air.
What I did:
I threw 10K into that problem. Changed basically whole air system:
- the whole air dryer assembly 3 times
- fan clutch
- air compressor
- sensors and fittings on various places
- harness that connects to whatever computer it connects (not cheap)
Been to 3 different mechanics (one of them is official Volvo Dealer). They just don't seem get what the problem is.
What I can tell for sure is it does this problem when it is snowing (when it is wet and freezing temperature) consistently.
At this point I'm almost done with that sucker (just barely holding myself from putting gasoline and burning it for good).
Any suggestions.
