Volvo S40 and V40 (X40) 1995-2004 Review

Engine mounts are a regular fail item. Turbo models can suffer problems with oil feed to the turbocharger. Some models fitted with variable valve timing that can be problematic.

All engines have a timing belt that needs replacement every 120,000 km or 5 years.
