It may not be silly to replace cheap pressure switch now preventively.

Awaiting for the data, please wait...

After a few cycles of cooling and driving the AC seems to be functioning with some strength now... I will do a 15 hours drive next week and see how it works in that one. If nothing gives then I will take it to another workshop and get the details @calibenzdriver asked for! I appreciate you all for being such helpful supportive lads! Volvo did not have this community. Its kind of fun not gonna lie (I might change my religion from Volvo fan boy to Mercedes? we will see)

Will need OP to check their hood sticker, since you have a W204, it might be different if OP has a W205 but yes, overcharging the system is definitely an issue and also results in no a/c
