Moin moin, my turbocharger from my V40 2.0T Built. 2002 163 HP (Automatic) causes problems 🙁 From one day to the other there is a dull whistle in every acceleration, one could also call it surren, difficult to describe. In addition, a very high whistle, only to hear from the outside, but not with the head in the engine compartment, but really only from the outside, rather towards the end pot, can not really be localized. I think that it is directed through the exhaust system to the outside. In addition, it ejects a thin, black liquid from the exhaust, smells like a mixture of oil, gasoline and exhaust gases, maybe also cooling water? I still could not detect performance loss, but of course I don’t want to test it properly. Now my flags: – Does someone have such a kind of instruction as the replacement works? – Do I have to find a loader for exactly the model or does also fit the one from the older model with 160 HP? And does automatic drives or circuit play a role? Would soooo grateful for many tips and suggestions) :

As I see it, this forum is only run by three people. Asterix, Warfi and Drillschnaffe. Who I miss most is asparagus. At some point we can shut down the shop here as well. But what bothers me most is that there is little positive feedback. If you look at the calls to topics in relation to the contributions, that’s already fraping. Does nobody dare say anything? If the above-mentioned people have no desire for this forum anymore, it’s dead. And that’s a pity. My opinion.

Hello can someone help me? I need the cable assignment of the Lambda probe for V40 2.0 ,103KW , Bj:96 bought me a Universal – Lambda probe with open cable ends, unfortunately without connection plan. The cable colors at the Universal – Lambda probe are gray – mass black – signal ECU 2x white – probe heater The original probe has the colors Red White Black Yellow Where does it come from??? Thank you for the many answers in advance , often someone has already installed a Universal – Lambda probe.

Hello, my loyal Elsch (V40, year 1999, 2,0T) is getting me out of my mind right now and I hope someone can help me with my suffering. After the rear windscreen wiper only worked sporadically, I removed the engine and cleaned it as described in the forum. After that it ran for about 6 months again, then it started that you didn’t hear the pump at the splash water switch (back window), but everything still works on the windshield until today. Electricity comes to the rear wiper engine and you hear the relay work, but unfortunately the rear windscreen wiper doesn’t turn any more. Had it tried then also with a replacement wiper motor, but unfortunately without success. My guess that maybe the relay has a crack or the electronics has a problem. Does someone happen to know where the relay for the rear windscreen wiper is sitting? Did someone happen to have such a problem from you and can tell me what I can try out? Thank you in advance for your feedback.

Hello together, I looked in the forum and unfortunately did not find anyone who had this problem already. The following happened to me today. I had the IPOD radio adapter in the cigarette lighter and after a short time I had to pull it out because my IPOD had crashed. After this action my cigarette lighter suddenly did not work anymore. I looked up all the fuses and none is broken (outside and inside). The cables are also externally intact and the cigarette lighter does not seem to be externally defective. I only found a piece of plastic that comes from the inside of the cigarette lighter, but in my opinion only serves to guide the plug and otherwise has no function. My suspicion is that the lighter is still in the bucket and I need a new one. But before I buy a new one I would like to hear your opinion. Is the ZA broken or is there still a hidden fuse? My car: V40 97er BJ 2.0 16V Thanks in advance Max28

Hello, I have the following problem there is no water coming out of my rear wiper nozzle at all. But you can clearly hear the pump running, when does it sound quite “empty”. Can anyone tell me where the hoses run exactly. Those at my old car were torn down and the broth ran into the car. I would like to prevent this. Greeting Moritz

Hello, I soon wanted to change the camshaft adjuster with magnetic switch (B4184S2). Now I have already selected the following parts: 6900015 camshaft adjustment (24) 36002684 magnetic switch (31) 30731212 seal magnetic switch (32) 9458309 shaft seal ring inlet side (28) 9440651 shaft seal ring outlet side (28) 1397381 seal cover plastic (17) 9454788 seal cover metal (34) To those who have changed this before: Did I forget any parts or would have to change anything else in the same gear? And what would interest me sometimes?… I found the camshaft adjustment or the gear wheel on the internet still from febi, which would make for a saving of 100 € – gü. the original part of Volvo – with me. Can you build this without any concern or should be used back to the original? I unfortunately don’t know who is the first outfitter at Volvo. If febi, then it would be an explosion!

Hello forum, but since a short time and out of the blue I have a rapid power break in warm engine. It feels like a cylinder will fail, which I want to exclude. Short error description: At cold start is the full power and completely normal driving behavior available. This keeps itself without problems, until the engine is warm after 10 to 15 minutes. A short jerking and the engine sounds like a trecker and has no more power. Also the engine switch off and turn on again shows no effect. Only after the engine is properly cooled down is again full power available and no start problems. I exclude spark plugs now – I have just changed them. The ignition coils are it m.M. also not, since I have no ignition triggers but from a certain time permanently the problem described above. Maybe someone knows the error picture or has a tip. I have the feeling a sensor o.ä. is defective. Thanks for every tip! VG Simon Ps: Volvo V40 – Bj.98 – 120tkm – 2.0l Sauger – Automatic

Hello! We had a small “accident”, and that’s when we arrived at the crossed barrier and the oil pan jumped, beside miserable engine oil in the yard, my mechanic is looking for a replica of my oil pan just in vain, I have a 1.9 diesel V40, 102 hp The oil pan including gasket costs 560€ alone :O :O :O :O With installation, oil and everything I probably come to almost 1000€ Now I have to make a pickerl in a month and I’m afraid to pay another few 100€ there, is 2003 BJ. Would you invest so much? KM are 189 000 actually I wanted to sell it now because we are looking for something bigger! Can you help me? Can you find a replica that is not so expensive on the Internet? Apparently there is no such thing, I’m so angry so Lg Lena

Moin, had a Volvo V40, BJ2001, 90KW, drove the day before yesterday normally into the parking gap and from the next day the car did not start. I already had a feeling when turning in gdas that something is wrong. Now neither light, lights, nor can the door be locked. Battery is only one month old. I had hoped that only the mass cable is defective, therefore today with bridge cables connected to motor block, but nothing. Now I don’t know. Can it be due to a fuse?
