When I bought the car (2 years ago), the power steering was filled with red colored fluid. Also the AC condensor had a leak. At first I repaired the condensor and the system was filled with gas -> The sound apeared.
A few days later I flushed the power steering system with new green fluid with the right specs (not original Volvo), I still had that noise. A day later I replaced the powersteering pump with a new one, and I replaced the alternator bearings, and fitted a new idler pulley, new tensioner and a new serpentine belt. Result was that I still had that noise. Two weaks later I fitted a new distribution kit and a new pump with the same result.
A year later I replaced the compressor with a new one, still no result
