Volvo V40 1.9TD XS

Who makes the diesel engine for these also is there anything to look out for when buying second-hand Thanks JOHN

Find one with at least the "Europe" package (includes electric windows, half-leather, airco etc etc) Often the ash-tray is broken in a second hand V40; try it out by pushing it. Also the fase 1 often has scales; the blanc laquer peels, on the center dashboard. The drivers armsupport is standard a bit weak. After a couple of years it will break off when leaning a bit to hard on it. The repair set is a quite a bit stronger version than the original. I had the engine checked by my garage, since I'm not into engines.

For the rest: great car! Drive one myself and have been looking for one for approx 5 months before I found the one I'm driving now

Regarding the diesel engine; I think fase 1 was supplied by renault. From fase 2 they were Volvo's own make. Not sure about the above though. Maybe someone can give better details on this.
