I don't think reliability is an issue with this car. You probably just got unlucky. In my country the v40 has sold like hotcakes since its release, so there are tons of people driving them both private and as a company car. They have a reputation for being reliable cars.
Poor and missleading review.
The keyless system are more secured, pushing the button won't harm those precious finger 🖕
Probably the worst Volvo review out there. How can a keyless engine start be an issue?
This guy is speaking out of his ass
You say in the video that the V40 has some reliability issues. But in Germany, according to the German road assistance company called Tüv, the Volvo V40 is best in its class as far as build quality and reliability is concerned.
Agree, he dont know what he is talking about...
WinkelHoof Go and look in forums of others car makers. You'll find much more and severe problems with other car makers.
Moreover, in forums you'll only hear from people who had problems. You don't hear about the positive experiences.
TÜV is not a road assistance company. TÜV is a company which ensures safety and other standards for multiple products. If you break down at the side of the road you call the ADAC, not TÜV.
anfahrt lol I agree with you. Not Kris.... 😀
I didnt exactly listen every second of the reliability part but I found nothing related to reliability in it. It was about revs vibrating with metal parts and music vibrating with passenger side door. Those are legitimate concerns but have nothing to do with what reliability is
I agree on the sound of the diesel. Thats why I drive a T4 petrol. But reliability issues...come on...you drive a rental car that people treat like s**t what do you expect? I had no problems with my V40 for four years, only regular service with oil changes thats all.
Early models with Ford parts tends to be less reliable as far as I heard, especially the ones with Ford Powershift. Later models were far more reliable because they switched the transmission supplier to Aisin, and injectors to Denso.
@@INUMIMI28 How early we talking?
@@RS-xv5qi 2012~2015, pre 8-speed era to be exact.
@@INUMIMI28 thanks God I got the T2 2.0 with a Volvo engine, managed to chip it to 225hp & 400 torque.
@@Habs1967 Niiice, i got ‘17 D4, it’s still stock because it still got warranty but when it expires I’m thinking of putting Heico ECU chip
I have the Volvo V40 D2 Momentum and its really good.
Me too its a really good car overall
would you say it is pleasant to drive? I'm considering a Cross Country model D3 or D4 against a Seat Leon 2.0 TDI, or even an s60/V60.
@@Brukner841 I just swapped my old v40 momentum for the r design version cuz this one is fully equiped and I can safely say both are a pleasent drive.
@@Brukner841 However the s60 or v60 do have better suspension plus you can actually adjust it depending on how you drive so like more sporty or more comfort
@@nicolastorresgiraldo7240 great to know it actually makes a difference.
Noisy?? it's exactely the opposite, one of the most silent diesels around.
What a poor review. I own a 2016 V40 T5 Inspiron to which I have added a Polestar cat back exhaust system and a Polestar Optimisation upgrade.
I have none of the complaints you mentioned and after 30,000km it is still a great cat to drive.
The motor is a bit noisy but the exhaust sorts out that problem. The 8 Speed Auto transmission is great and smooth but a tad slow in the Sport or manual mode.
The dealers service has been great and the ownership rewarding. Well done Volvo!
I don't know, most of it sounds like just a personal taste.
Haven't experienced Volvo's reliability issues at all. My S40 has been very reliable during 5 years of ownership (by today it is 15 years old). My next vehicle will be V40 and I am quite confident with that choice.
we will be buying a 2014 v40 , apart from normal servicing nothing has broken at it XD
Seriously!? Pushing a button to open the car is an issue!!?? How can anyone now take you serioulsy? No wonder you faced reliability issues.
Issue # 5 Key less start is brilliant, I think. It is a little annoying for convenience, but I think it is a good idea. Some people can't even figure out how to start my vehicle
I'm actually happy with my V40 2.0 D4 190HP. Very quiet and smooth engine. And yes. It is a diesel, laughing my ass off at the gasstation. The bad thing is the roadtax here is expensive. I've heard some people saying the D2 1.6 PSA ain't good at all.. So I understand your opinion.
Stämmer, D2, D3 är INTE bra.
D4 är bäst. Har en vän som är mekaniker och tack vare honom köpte jag D4, han rekommenderade ingen annan än D4.
is it reliable? im planning to buy an used 2015 Volvo V40 2.0 D4 that has 131.000km on it
@@bimosalexandres I am considering as well. What the price quoted?
Any advice for the D4? lLoking at a few V40’s with the D4 all off them have a mileage of 200k km - 235k km, any points i need to check out?
1st world problems from the sounds of it.if you dont like the diesel,buy the manual petrol.good job you dont have to insert the key and turn it!what a chore that would be!
The things you don't like is parts that you have to get used to with all diffrent cars. If you've owned a xc90 and trade it for a v40, you can't expect it to be exactly the same. Your review went bad at the beginning , the first thing you hate about it is becouse it's a diesel? Get a gasoline one then. I'd personal would't want a keyless lock, for saftey. If it's something wrong with the parts (like the spring), change it instead of complaining about it. And yes the door sounds when you have music on, and I'll tell you a secret, the speakers are inside the door. Ssh.
I have a volvo v60 d4 , i dont think diesel sound that bad.. good video keep it up !
It’s a damn fine, world class vehicle, and clearly you have NFI about Volvos.
I think you should change your rental company !! it is clear this car has not been serviced and maintained correctly !! but this isn't untypical on a rental car !! I think to raise these issues on a brand of car isn't quite right Kris, best get a car from a volvo dealership direct before posting a video on the car ! these cars are mistreated by everyone who hires them, hence you having to change one V40 for another, yet the second car has issues as well !! The V40 was voted the most reliable compact car 2017, JD power survey, so your experience of two V40s isn't typical of the ownership experience of many thousands of customers !!
Don't worry when you're sitting in your quite petrol, the sound of the car next to you will just be more apparent.
I have none of these issues on my V40
I think he just likes to complain :))))))
So.. This ain't 5 things wrong with the v40, it's 5 thing you personally dislike.. The diesel and automatic is all things you can get around, the key, don't see the problem.. The viper arm, I mean come on, you do that mistake 2 times and then remember that it's that way. Last, is a rattle sound on that specific car?? It would be like me saying the brakes on the c30 is shit because mine was worn out and had to be replaced..
Moist pointless points ever
STAND STIIIIILL.... Making me feel drunk.
I absolutely agree with you as to the diesel sound. I had v40 1.6 diesel and I sold the car after half a year as the noise was unacceptable. The other issues you've mentioned are not a problem for me, on the other hand:) As for engines in v40 I've recently had a try in v40cc with 2.5turbo 5cyl-it is a great car then.
Hey can you tell.me where to open the bonnett on the 1'6 v 40 can't find lever any where please help
Honda wipers are the same as this Volvo, I get so confused with the wipers every time I get into my mum's car and try to do a single wipe and end up putting the wipers on full speed.
The XC40 also has remote entry but keyless start unless you spec it as an option. I've ordered an XC40 and I actually like that it doesn't have keyless entry. Most of the time I use the remote window closing/opening so keyless entry/locking is a useless feature for me when I'd already have the key in my hand opening the windows walking up to the car, or closing them walking away.
As far as I know, I have the wiper stock the same way on '06 XC90. Not really using it. the rain sensor is on, so I don't even move the stock.
My 2018 V40 T2 has a keyless entry!
Can't stand bloggers that have to raise their palm, spread their fingers out whenever they say "five".
And do you gave to be so shouty-whiny, Poindexter ?
5 things you hate about the v40 is the diesel engine and automatic transmission. 😑 You know you can get a manual petrol engine, right? And the windshield wipers, really? Reliability issues with the volvo? I think you're just a hater dude.
Absolutely agree about noisy diesel engine, both on idle and while driving. Buy petrol or fully electric cars.
Too late man! Already down voted when you told me not to.
"I am a Volvo fan, I had my XC90 for over 2 years" was one of the funniest phrases I have ever heard!
Volvo's are supposed to be owned forever, not for 2 years....
What do you think I replace my XC90 with then? 🙈😂
I have a v40 2014 which I've bought at about 50k miles and it has every single problem you described. Except the one with the key, you can't actually start the motor without inserting the key, but you can take it out after that.
Everyone’s entitled to there opinion but personally I hate automatics but if you wanted a car with faster shifting by a car with a DSG and diesels have always been noisier then petrols and the v40 is voted probably most reliable and yes you might of just had bad luck but it’s not common for them to have problems but just like any used car you don’t know who’s drove it before you so regardless it’s a pointless argument but I do agree on the keyless entry
Keyless entry is actually a terrible safety flaw - thieves have absolutely no problems in extending your keys signal to unlock, start and drive away the car when you're already gone. Seems like a badly researched complaint.
PTG_St3v3oh this is highly dependant on what version and generastion keyless entry. The latest versions are not prone to this flaw.
I just now read a report by the police in germany that strongly advises against "keyless-go" systems in any cars as a "premium priced" car was stolen last night.
Speaking of this - the aston martin dealer in cologne gives customers free boxes which stop the signal from travelling outside the box when the key is not needed.
Police also advised to store the keys "as far as possible" away from the actual car.
You don't know much about cars... do you?
1. There is NO keyless start. If you press the Start button "position 2" comes, lights and all the others, but you cannot start engine. IF you start the car and take the key out... yes you can stil drive.
2. This car is not noisy. I drive 150-160 km/h and I can hear if you wisper in the back seats.
100% right, same problem 🥴
I think the rental/leasing company may have given you a dodgy car knowing you'll only drive it for a short while. What you describe sounds to me the car may have had a little accident affecting the right side front.
My Mazda 3 is the same wiper controls as this, going down rather than up...just saying
I have a 2017 V40 D4, mine won't start unless the key is in the slot in the dashboard.
same i have 2k16 d2 and the same thing but as soon as i start the engine i can pull the key out
you should add in the title that you drove an D2, because i have the D3 automatic and its a really really good car! I drove 110k kms last year in it, with no issues at all!
Have the D4 8 speed auto and its excellent!
The only thing bad about this car is the pedestrian airbag
I have a V40 gas, auto, 2018.. recent aquisition. When in park mode, is super silent. When driving super acceptable sound levels from engine or from road (previously had a diesel car = loud). Car seems quality build..
I do ave some concerns, i haven't yet set my mind if i stuck gold or bronze with this aquisition. Consumption it sais 7.2L/ 100km..but lost 2 lines in few days, few trips, this makes no sense.. Cant say i love the automatic transmission, how it speeds up.. it keeps at 2500-ish rpm.. it does have sport mode (like normal drive + sport drive), it does allow manual gear change (+/- with S mark.. but never tried it)
No android auto, dealer said it has..
I also dont like the wiper stick configuration.. actually both left + right (previous car had smarter config).
I have a V40 T4 6-speed automatic (2017), and I like much more than the 8-speed automatic in my wife's Volvo!! I guess the car you drove has some serious issues.
how are the gear changes in automatic mode? are they sort of refined and smooth in Town?
do you think the v60 with same engine will be noise as this model ?
Sorry, but you showed all the irrelevant reasons, and pretty much showed your spoiled consumer nature.
I've been driving lot of cars, and my experience is that Audi A3, VW Golf or BMW 1 are not a match for V40, and are way behind V40 in important terms.
For me the no1 decision to buy V40 D4 R design, was security, however I've been pleasantly surprised in other areas as well
😅The wiper stalk is confusing😂
You seem unhappy with your car.
Wanna trade that v40 for my 1995 Peugeot 205 diesel?
The right side door noise is from the right side engine suspensions when milage over about 80,000KM. The noise from speed 40-80km. My V40 is the same as you. Engine suspension rubber is not good. I was changed twice in milage 180,000Km.
why this strong shaking from 6 minute?
Hello can you tell me about d3 engine , do you think is noise as this one
Should have got the 190hp diesel.. Fanny
6 speed auto is also from aisin and I have it in my petrol peugeot and its ok, normal, sometimes jerks. Def the least of peugeots problems
my 2013 v40 had keyless entry the wiper stalk is normal and it's a petrol engine. No problems with the automatic transmission yet. Annoying things are the servicing and fixing in Okinawa Japan as there are no volvo garages.
Add one more item. This car has pedestrian airbag, which is supposed to be a great security item, but it has a huge problem. It can be activated by light impacts with small animals (happened with my wife). If it happens, the car stops abruptly and inflates the airbag. It is quite weird behavior, because the car takes the control from the driver and can eventually cause a bigger accident with some vehicle coming from behind. Moreover, this system impacts many parts of the car making the repair very expensive.
Did the small animal live?
@@pennysparks1798 Yes, but not because of the airbag.
I suppose that this means that if you crash the front of the car in the city with another car at a low speed the airbag is operate, which is totally meaningless, right?
looking forward for your XC90 vids.
I live in the UK and have a Volvo V40 Momentum T3. Basically the car is good to drive and a pleasure to travel in.
BUT! after just one year old I had a clutch burn out. It took Volvo 4 weeks to repair it under warranty. Despite the fact that they already had the replacement clutch sitting in their workshop.
So! It's not really the car but the after sales repair and maintenance to fault. But a low mileage car one year old should not have a clutch go.
Dont ride the clutch?
The 2.0l petrol model sounds like a diesel 😢
I have the same Volvo and the key must be in the keyhole otherwise the engine will not start and the loud engine there are more options for your engine an elegance two power and three eco mode
Diesel not to your taste? So buy a T3 petrol. 156bhp.
One complaint I have about my V40 is the windows, they fog up so easily and even when I defog it it starts fogging back up after 3 seconds
Mine too
Well if that car is second hand sounds to me it’s been in a crash or doors are adjusted wrong from factory
@@clonSanG Nope, I bought it new, my wild guess is because the V40’s A-pillar is so slanted and the front window is placed far forward, there’s massive space around the dash for humidity to pile up and start condensating.
I agree that the windows are fogging up quick in the V40 but for me it’s only the door windows and only if you turn off AC. My windshield doesn’t have this issue. I assume it’s because the previous owner covered the windshield with a water resistant / anti-fogging coating. I’d recommend you to try it as well.
i have a volvo v40 2013 R disign this same model , 160.000 km , no problems! i dont think diesel sond bad to, i have the manual gear box , is very nice ....... soooo .... maybe you drive 2 volvo v40 from a rent a car ..... hummm......
Can you tell me how to open the bonnett on a v 40 deisel it's sais on manual on left at feet but not there any help greatly appreciated
The new Volvos can also be ordered without Keyless Entry. But they all have Keyless Start. So no improvement on that front.
The keyless entry may need to be set in settings?
I did wonder. There are many options. Key in hole to start. Keyless start and keyless entry with keyless start and remote start from your phone 📱
The Volvo D2 diesel is a perfect car. This video is really worse. I have already 410.000 km and it is still driving without any problem.
The noise in the door is correct.
Most uncomfortable car I've ever driven - gave me hideous hip and lower back pain. Just couldn't get it to fit. I'm 5'9" male, so you'd think I'd fit in this car. 840s, s40 great cars...drove my S40 from Czechia to Brighton - bout 13 hours...only needed to stretch my legs at end. This one kills me after 20 mins. Ford Volvos I had no issues with. Geely ones; no thanks.
I have t5 cross country AWD v40 , has none of the problems you mentioned , guess it make no sense to make a video of a rented average company car
Are you gonna bye a Volvo xc90 agin? 🇳🇴 har du kjøpt en Volvo xc90 igjen?
Yes he has, he will take delivery of it next week !! watch out for his new video when he gets it !!
I have a v40 disel and is the best car ever
As for the fifth point. I think the car has been involved in a car accident.
This goes maybe a little bit later, but.....please leave the cars for grown people and go play with your little toys. I still can't understand this millennials.
Get a manual then 🤷🏻♂️ Not difficult 😂🤣
I f you were volvo fan youd be drivin 740 or 940
Comparing a v90 and v40……why not v40 and a rolls royce?
Yes That's true.
...
D2 = ok
D3 = beter
D4 = best
I know a guy who worket as Volvo mecanic for 20 years. That's why i asked him, and thank him i have a wonderfull car Volvo V40 D4 2015.
Least it isn't plagued with a poorly designed timing chain
Did u not think of test driving the car before buying it if it has faults with the gear box and it would raise its head in a test drive the clunky ness and all the rest of the stuff
Well, this was lame. You start by saying the engine is too loud and the transmission sucks, and then you say the car is mostly pleasant to drive. Jesus. And the wiper and keyless rants are just silly, not sure what's the problem there. Anyway, I test drove an automatic petrol T3 and the engine was quiet and the transmission smooth enough.
D4 with 8 speed. Problem solved
Please, that are your 5 issues????
We call that non-issues
Poor review!
all of your problems are personal opinions, that aren't at all informative nor very helpful
The best v40s were built when they came out with real Volvo engines not Ford and came out with better options
Most of the are Volvo engines. Only the smallest like the 1.6 are from Ford. My 2012 D3 for example is a Volvo I5 Diesel.
Ceep your hands on th well...
Bro is switching from newest, biggest and most expensive Volvo to the oldest, smallest and cheapest one. Of course you won’t like the same.
You know nothing if you don't like diesel motor😆
This car is not for races dude, its for the Economy.
man complaining about a diesel car sounding too much ffs
Nye D2 er jo nedtrimma D4.
6 trinns automat girkassa med diesel er dårlig, erfart det selv😬😅
I like manual
Why you testing a car that a little bit expensive is for you?
How do you reckon this is too expensive for me? 🙈 I’ve had two XC90s, two A4s on this channel and currently own an Audi E-Tron. All cara that are way more expensive than this V40
@@KrisRifa My God that was a Joke! Come down.
Maybe AudiQ7 instead of xc90 To this guy.. And then 30000 km's review.
vurry vurry
i think the problem is YOU .... not the car nor brand.
Own a v40 1.6 d2 r design. My issues afterx5 years of ownership.... door locks, both driver side and passenger side, one day wouldnt open, (over seperate periods of time) known issue, volvo dealer fixed (at cost to me). The boot, way too small. Like if you had young kids/ pram, forget it. Its nowhere near as big as golf etc. turning circle, jesus, this is a general volvo issue, however jupiters orbit of the sun, is a smaller ciircumference than a v40 on full lock. Fact, end of. Only other issue is r design (not cross country or other models) no spare wheel. Instead a tub of cream glue and a ciggy lighter pump. So 2am on a motorway, split tyre, youre screwed. End of. So i bought a complete space saver/ inc jack etc and this is in the boot, which isnt designed for a spare wheel.... so a bit shit really.
All diesels sound like trash trucks
The issue isn't the car. It's himself to the car.
Poor Volvo dying in a hands of a confused guy who doesn't know to have a male or a female as a wife. 🤷🏻♂️
First world problems
Hello chuvak, ty just not ride UAZ ROSSIYA 😅. Привет из России)
