IMPORTANT NOTE
As mentioned in the comments, it's of the greatest importance that the thermistor is a NTC type. NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) means that the resistance decreases with rising temperature. If you would happen to mount a Positive Temperature Coefficient thermistor (PTC) it will cause your climate system to havoc.

If your Volvo V70/S80/S60 climate system has started to act wobbly in automatic mode, chances are that a damaged thermistor is the problem. You can replace it with any thermistor as long as it rates 10 kΩ @ 25°C. You’ll find it in any well managed electronics part store.
A thermistor is a resistor whose resistance varies with the surrounding temperature, and is the key component in any climate control system / thermostat. The thermistor is located behind the slats right above the right temperature knob, and is often damaged when trying to remove dust that tends to gather inside.
