I know this is a year old but to check the oil in the dash like how you tried do the following steps. Push the start button for 3 seconds (do not hold the clutch down) this will turn the Eletrics on then push ok and go into the oil menu and it will show you
What makes tolly swift one of the best videos is it's straight to the point clear instructions. And not long winded And the best sound effect is the tools and no music yay👍🏿👍🏿
I really appreciate this video fullfill of precious information for who like to do this kind of work. Go straight to the point, thanks to share that with us.
Ridiculous..looks like you muller it, putting it back in .. that's why I have never changed the cabin filter in the V40 for 100k miles. You have to strip the whole bloody car to bits to get at it ..probably won't bother with our V40 either
Fantastic video, Thank you. Very clear information especially on the fuel filter pipe clips and electrical connector. Can I add, don't leave the capped old filter on your blocked drive in the sun, the caps come off and you've another mess to clean😄
This is the great video! Finally My question is, once replacing the fuel filter should I vent the air from the system? Or just to quickly start and rev the engine. Thank you
Hi Greg, some cars are terrible to bleed when changing the fuel filter but a lot of them self bleed just fine. On most vehicles a combination of switching the ignition on and off (activating the lift pump in the tank) and starting and revving does the trick no problem. I hope it works for you too!
With the oil level monitor..its not just the ridiculous facf that you have to drive 35 kilometers before yoh can check it ..its the factvgfat even THEN it doesn't show you the level!! Even when the display is a guage . It jyst says "OIL OK " so you still have no idea whatsoever what the actual level is .. absolute maddness .. wfat was wrong with tge simple dipstick ....great video perfect instruction, and none if that stupid annoying music ...or speeded up detail
Hi, many thanks for this super video. I just bought a late 2018 V40 D2 manual yesterday and having been checking out videos to see if I’m going to do the servicing myself. One quick question. Do you have to remove any underbody covers to get access for the oil drain/filter and the fuel filter? Reason for asking is that I couldn’t see the fuel filter underneath after a quick look. Thanks again, great video! 🚗🍾❤️
Awesome Tip, Just checked our 2016 D4 from cold and it works. It was so frustrating not knowing the oil level unless you had driven it for 20 miles and letting it stand for 5 minutes. Who does that???? you just tend to drive it around in good faith that the electronic sensor will always work as it should. Thank you for sharing this with us all. Kind regards Paul
@@stephenkennedy9687 Thank you Stephen for subscribing to my TH-cam channel. you are #48 for 48-SPOKES. It was my first milestone. I hope you enjoy the channel content. Kind regards Paul BTW I shared your tip on the Volvo V40 forum. Thanks again 👍
Great Video..... a little question about the Fuel Filter.... on the invoice it says 32312225, in the filter 32312226, but the old one 31669472, so Is there a difference or is it just a matter of updates ?
To check oil level you don't start the car all the way. You just hold the start button until all dash lights up. Then you scroll to oil level. It should be accessible then.
David is right. You put the key in and without the clutch, press once and then press again for about 5 seconds and all the symbols light up. Then you can check it
Hi I'd like to find out something about the oil sump. Do I need to remove the oil filter housing to access another bolt which holds whole oil sump in place?? Thanks Ed
Great video, I wonder if this is suitable for the D4 version (my motor code is D4204T14), I'd like to do some servicing myself, but don't want to be in the blind. Thanks
I have the same car as you and just got the stuff to do my first one this weekend. Will let you know if anything is different but from the parts it looks like everything is the same
Sorry it took so long to get back to you Alexandra. I did end up doing the service and it's all the same stuff there's no difference really between the service of this engine and our D4s.
This one isn’t a cross country but the service procedures will be exactly the same if it’s also the Volvo engine in yours and not the PSA one. I’d say get the gearbox serviced every 40k miles 👍
I bought a volvo v40 d2 2015 mileage 190 thousand kilometers, the previous owner poured 5w30 oil, at the next change pour 0w20 as recommended by volvo?
I have a question, I own this car for a year, and it keeps spending oil, half of liter per 2000km, I spoke with some people and they say that is common for this d2 engine. What do you think?
0.5-1 litres every 5,000 miles is certainly common but a litre every 2,000 km is pretty excessive. Some engines do use a lot of oil but that’s a bit too much in my opinion.
@IAMASPANNER quick question, I have a Volvo V40 D4 r design 2.0 diesel year 2014 and it also has no dipstick 🤬 had the car just over a year now and like every 6 weeks or so( not sure about how many miles will have to keep an eye on it to see ) it keeps asking for half a litre so give it, thought it might be the oil sensor so got it replaced and it still happening asking for half a litre, so thought I might have an oil leak everytime I park the car for long enough overnight for weeks I would check and no oil on the floor or on the undercarriage no smoke whatsoever from the exhaust so just can't figure out where the oil is going? It's done 1 hundred and 5 thousand miles someone mentioned to me that it could be getting burnt up but how? Why? How to check? It's driving me mad where it's going ( oil ) and this is been happening for 9 months 😡
Tell me about it, I can’t believe it doesn’t have cruise control, just a speed limiter. To be fair though BMW are exactly the same. I’ve had 4 M135i and only one of them had cruise control.
Oil filters are likely to be in different positions and petrols don’t have a fuel filter to change but the rest is probably the same. Also the oil requirements are different.
I don’t disagree but honestly you wouldn’t believe how much oil is left inside the engine on an oil change no matter how long you let it drain. I’ve dismantled engines and with the sump off overnight half a litre will continue to drain out of all the galleries etc. In reality even a full filter housing of dirty oil wouldn’t make any difference.
It’s funny you should mention that because the car went for a recall at Volvo and they must’ve took it off, on the way home it fell off so it looks like even they have issues getting them back on properly.
@@IAMASPANNER sorry for giving you shit bud, I was angry at the time, it was pissing me off that I couldn’t get it back on, I took it out on you. We’ve all been there 😂
@@jayef3422 we’ve all been there, cabin filters bring out the worst. Sorry if it wasn’t clear in the video, I can’t tell you how hard it is to record while doing it on my own and even if someone else was holding the camera there wouldn’t be room!
I used 5w-30 but yes I saw that OE is 0w-20. I think they specify the 0w-20 for eco reasons rather than the viscosity mattering so much but I’m not sure. 5.2 litres, yes.
@@IAMASPANNER Hello, Do you have problems with the car due to the fact that you do not use 0w-20 oil and use 5w-30? Does your car consume oil? Problems with the egr chiller? How many km is your car? Thank you
@@IAMASPANNER Using a different oil viscosity is really not recommended in my opinion, especially whith these full synth thin oils. Those engines are specifically build for these oils is what mechanics tell me. I switched to a different oil for once, but mechanics told me to never to that again. :)
@@placeh0dlerr I agree recommended is best but it's the same recommendation regardless of country. As far as I'm aware the 0-20w rating is due to stop-start (thinner at colder temperatures) but correct me if I'm wrong.

The engine needs to be switched off, and the ignition need to be turned on, that's only when you can check the oil level in the car.
Great video, 👍 I didn't realise that cabin filter would be so bad ,

Thanks for such an informative video. Can you please upload a video for 2015-16 Volvo v40 d2 2.0 diesel, timing belt etc replacement?
You’re very welcome Vekorna. If we still have the car when it needs one then yes I will but it may be a few years!
Very informative and helpful video... although those fuel filter clips are a nightmare, ended up breaking both of them! Thanks for the video
How did you get it fixed? Are they replaceable?
The only thing that I cannot do is the oil filter change, because I don't have that "huge tool". Thanx for the video.😊
They’re not that expensive, you’d still save enough for it to be worth it even if you bought the tool. Thanks for watching!
Absolutely spot and and extremely well explained - Thankyou
Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated 👍
Congratulations for tour vídeo.
Great video with none of that annoying background music. But hey man, where some some gloves!!!
Two comments I get quite a lot and you’re right about both! Thanks for the comment, I’ll buy some gloves, it’s overdue.
This is the great video! Finally
My question is, once replacing the fuel filter should I vent the air from the system? Or just to quickly start and rev the engine.
Thank you

how do you vent the air from the system if it does not work by itself?
OMG. This is brilliant. Thank you very much for sharing this.
Do you think it is possible to choose filters by Purflux? can you recommend it?
Purflux are fine, I usually use Mann or genuine Volvo.

hold start for around 5 seconds seems to show the oil level on the menu
Is this with the car warm though? With the engine cold I don’t think it can get a reading.

Hi David, I’ll check this out but I’m pretty sure the engine has to be warm?
@@IAMASPANNER you may be right😀
David is right. You put the key in and without the clutch, press once and then press again for about 5 seconds and all the symbols light up. Then you can check it
Also the engine needs to cool slightly before checking. It took me ages to figure it out.
What oil specification did you use? It's about the ACEA parameter.
from wich website you buy all this orginal part !! thanks a lot
Hi I'd like to find out something about the oil sump. Do I need to remove the oil filter housing to access another bolt which holds whole oil sump in place??
Thanks
Ed
Sorry I don’t have that information Ed, hope you find it.
How you bleed the air out of the fuel line? I presume there will be air in the line if you take of the hose to remove the fuel filter
I got away without bleeding. On some cars such as this the lift pump is strong enough to push the fuel through without any issues.
Nice job!
Great video, I wonder if this is suitable for the D4 version (my motor code is D4204T14), I'd like to do some servicing myself, but don't want to be in the blind. Thanks
I have the same car as you and just got the stuff to do my first one this weekend. Will let you know if anything is different but from the parts it looks like everything is the same
Thanks Alexandra, I think the T14 is the same engine as this with 2 turbos so the servicing should be the same as far as I can tell.
Sorry it took so long to get back to you Alexandra. I did end up doing the service and it's all the same stuff there's no difference really between the service of this engine and our D4s.
i just bought volvo, d4 190 ls, where i can found wich components i need? or i can use which shown in this video? thx
You could call Volvo, use your registration number to find your parts on eurocarparts or call your local motor factors such as GSF.
When checking the oil level in this car, one line on the display is 100ml or 1 liter?
I cannot confirm whether the lines have any measurement.
Is this cross country that's what I have wanna service myself but when would u say get gear box oil done it's automatic
This one isn’t a cross country but the service procedures will be exactly the same if it’s also the Volvo engine in yours and not the PSA one. I’d say get the gearbox serviced every 40k miles 👍
This engine sound is so pleasant ,unlike my own :/
It doesn’t sound that great on startup though.
I bought a volvo v40 d2 2015 mileage 190 thousand kilometers, the previous owner poured 5w30 oil, at the next change pour 0w20 as recommended by volvo?
5w30 is an option in most countries so it’s down to personal preference whether you use 0w20.
Always use the manual one imo, so 0w20
Hi, how s the car running with the 5w-30? Thank you
No problem at all, there shouldn’t be any issue, it’s the correct rating for Europe and the weather is quite warm here now.
نرجو منكم الترجمة للعربية
Where did you buy original Volvo parts?
Riverside Volvo in Hull.
may i ask what is your service interval?
I service this car yearly, it has usually done 12k miles. I would preference changing the oil every 9k or less, personally.
I have a question, I own this car for a year, and it keeps spending oil, half of liter per 2000km, I spoke with some people and they say that is common for this d2 engine. What do you think?

its so weird looking at a absolutely bare bones v40. Doesn't even have parking sensors which I honestly thought came as standard 🤣
Tell me about it, I can’t believe it doesn’t have cruise control, just a speed limiter. To be fair though BMW are exactly the same. I’ve had 4 M135i and only one of them had cruise control.
does it apply to the petrol ones?! got a T3.. 63reg.
Oil filters are likely to be in different positions and petrols don’t have a fuel filter to change but the rest is probably the same. Also the oil requirements are different.
yuk wipe the dirty oil out of filter housing before fitting o rings and filter
