Hello, I got a nice V40 from 1996 with 85 kw at 225700 km into my hands. The good piece comes from loving hands we look good, got TÜV a year ago without complaint and is well maintained. Runs clean, everything well except for a little rockfall on the hood and a few small scratches/macks. Unfortunately he does not have a roof rail but only on each side three recording points (grey stoppers in grey plastic profile). Since I want to mount a roof box, I probably need the rails. Is this for subsequent installation (without ripping off the roof sky) or is it such a plug-in system…? And is there the manual somewhere to download…? Thank you! …it is my first Volvo!

Hello, I have a V40 Bj. 3/99 Diesel with climate (I think manually, because I can not set a degree number, but can only control the heat regulation). In other articles I read that the lamp replacement should be relatively easy. I could simply pull off the buttons of the two switches (ventilation strength and direction of the air supply). But then comes a white plastic part with 2 “nips”, which can not be pulled out easily. Did the two “nips” with pliers bend a bit inwards, but the thing still could not move out of the disguise. To break nothing, I stopped this attempt. Can anyone give me a hint? Many greetings!

Hello people, after I have now tightened the charging air and turbo hoses in several places and replaced the seal at the suction bridge, my problem with the pressure loss is not solved. Again my problem: When I give gas I hear air escapes like somewhere. Sometimes louder, sometimes quieter and sometimes not at all. The “not at all” is (my observation after) only when the car has stood longer, mostly when it has been warmed up by the sun. When I speed up, the turbo nicely builds up pressure and then quickly walk away from the gas, I hear again how the excess air escapes somewhere where it should not. At least it sounds like that for me. That’s a blow-off… as I said, when the car has stood up, this is not the case (sometimes) but I can’t predict now when everything is in order and when it doesn’t. That comes and just goes away… So now my question: Is there any easy way to check all air hoses for cracks etc.? All I’ve come to, I’ve already looked at and feel like it’s not like a little bit of trouble.

In recent times, buyers of vehicles are also increasingly coming into the forum, whose vehicles have been bought as leasing backers or used cars. Often, the purchase decision seeks details for comparison, which are derived from the price lists of the respective model years. I would like to collect the price lists for the vehicles of the SPA- (60s and 90s series) and the CMA-platform respectively, if necessary create FAQ-articles daruas and thus bundle the price lists centrally and thus offer a central point of contact. I would like to concentrate on the German price lists first If therefore someone has price lists lying around as PDF of the model years from 2016, please post them here – I will sort them accordingly. Helpful information in the post about note: Please limit discussions on the content of the price lists to the absolute minimum – otherwise the last bit of clarity suffers.
