I have a 1995 850 wagon, non turbo. I have recently had the a/c clutch adjusted because the air was going warm after about 15-20 minutes of driving. Shut the car off and start it back up, everything is cool again, no pun intended. That was about 3 weeks ago. Now it seems like it has returned, though instead of the compressor cooling down after sitting for a few, it starts cooling again while I'm driving. Back and forth it goes, though it has been mighty warm today, about 90+. What could be the problem now? Help!

I wonder if the clutch was adjusted to .020 instead of .015? Sounds like you hit the proper solution, now ask the shop what they used for tolerence in the clutch.
