I think the CD was top followed by SE.

On the 960, it looks like “SE” was the base model! My 960 SE doesn’t have a sunroof or cruise control and “only” has manual air con (which still works - except when going uphill!)

Yep, an odd one. I bet on the last year they had whatever was in the parts bin!
I got my AC working last summer. Lovely in this weather although can't get the AC pipes fully sealed at the new condenser. Try new Volvo O ring seals again next re-gas.

My dad would say “odds and sods” 🤣
Have you tried using Teflon tape on the pipe threads? I know it’s for fluids but could work with gas too?

Cheers

No, not tried. I'll give it a go. Tried ordinary silicone, no good as pipes gets really hot. Maybe new o rings PTFE tape and heat proof silicone next!

It is some sort of unique 940. Doesn't come up with any trim/ spec in insurance database.
Never seen Volvo without any extras.Only winter pack( headlights wipers and front heated seats) ...even radiator fan isn't electronic one. Looks like someone didn't like any electronic toys.....or just was extremely greedy.
To boost up 2.5l i guess need to be 15g from 850 t5.
