My A/C guy is doing an interesting project on my 2007 43 Sovran. I am having cooling problems with 2 of my 5 A/C units.  They are leaking freon and are at the end of their life cycle.  The problem is that they are mounted on the bottom of a metal platform with 2 units on top of them.  This arrangement saves space but makes any type of service very labor intensive having to remove the upper units to access the lower units.  He is mounting a shelf to the right of the units and is going to place each unit on the shelf side by side for easy access.  If anyone wants a look, I will have pictures in a few days.

Hi, can anyone speak to the differences between the Volvo throttles on 2012+ models vs the older, metal throttle? 2012+ looks like a fully digital throttle, not sure on 2011/prior.

It's hard to find information on the electronic changes starting in the 2008+ Sovrans. Looks like DPS was added to some models starting around 2010? Any information/comments appreciated. Thank you.
