Wow. I'm really impressed with what I've heard here! One issue to another. I have 125K and the 2015 V40cc D3 (software tuned ) 205 hp, 470 Nm and 235 top speed is like a rocket! Last year I replaced the brake discs and after every 20K inspection and that's it.

I have owned a 2014 V40 T5 Cross Country since new here on the island of Phuket in SW a Thailand. Now 9 years latter and with only 37,000Km, I have no plans of ever selling.

Mine’s a 2014 V40 1.6 T4 bought it in 2022 with 109.000km on the clock, now 1,5 years later it has 144.000km and It runs as good as new.

Quiero comprarme un Volvo v40 2014 d4 o t4 manual me los recomiendas ??

1.6 hdi diesel engine which was installed in these cars, while being extremely common in plenty of other cars (Citroen, Peugeot, Ford) and extremely economical, is extremely sensitive to low quality fuel, I had to replace one of the injectors and they are quite expensive (around 800 euros a piece). Also regular service intervals are imperative on these engines. Older 5 pot diesels (D3 and D4) are much better. After the facelift the whole range (D2, D3, D4) are volvo 4 pot engines which suffer from clogged EGR valves, there was even a recall for these cars but are otherwise solid engines.

V40 245cv 2.0 T5 2017 had to change the engine starter with 150k km. Nowadays 190k km it is working okey. I've changed the timing belt, and mechanich recommended not to change water pump until malfunctioning due to possible software issues whem changing to a new one. Any other updates from V40 owners would be appreciated!

sorry, let me stop you at 1:50 and dispute the 1.6 diesel has proven itself quite well... The engine can be more troublesome than a teen growing up in a highrise. Yes, there are many thousands of these units across the world, but they suffer with coolant loss due to head or block issues, and with values of some of these car being comparable to a week in Portugal it simply isn't worth the risk putting an aging 1.6D on your drive. not when the bomb proof 2.0 D3 5 pot can be had for the same money

Another reason to avoid it is the pedestrian airbag that can inflate after light inpact with small animals provoking high loss to owner.

Thanks! I own an 1.5 petrol automatic transmission from 2017. Any updates regarding problems?

Volvo are not good cars any more, I had a D3 C30 and that was excellent and swapped to a d4 v40 which was a terrible mistake. At 60k miles the head gasket has gone along with the clutch. Obviously poor quality but it's my error, didn't realise at the time. Wouldn't recommend.

Avoid this car as it is unreliable. 2012-2019 models have engine problems and it can blow up at any time (if they are old). It is due to oil leakage at injection piston which causes it to burn oil, build up carbon and it can lead into oils igniting the engine. This is for 2 l diesel. However, 1,6 l is even worse. I wanted to buy Oceanic Racing model which had beautiful white leather seats with blue interior. It really have a car an outstanding look. However, despite it being 2015 old car and having history of scheduled maintenance, it has 280,000 km mileage. Knowing that their engines do not last, this car is essentially just worth purchasing second hand from first owner as afterwards, you will be taking significant risk with age and mileage.
