I have a 2013 D3 Lux that has front and rear parking sensors. Recently the near side (I’m in the UK) sensor regularly beeps at me and says there’s something there when I know there isn’t. It’s maddening. How easy is it to resolve this? Any tips to check it myself? And if it’s buggered, how easy is it to replace and what do I look for to replace it - part number, etc? submitted by /u/james_t_woods [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hey, I have a V40 from 2013, 115 hp 1.6 motor. Some while ago (2 years ago), I started getting some electronic problems and several error messages that I will post here. When I get these error messages, the car isn’t as responsive as usual and sometimes I can’t even check the speed at which I’m going. I get all sorts of error messages like “Refrigeration system doesn’t work”, “Brakes need to be checked”, “Pedestrian Safety System off”, “Airbags need to be checked”, etc. In addition to this, can’t check my current fuel level. Sometimes, the car won’t even start and I get an error message s ..read more

Hello guys, for those who has a v40 D4 190 hp. How many km do you have and what majors repairs you made? I have 310k km, and I was told to expect not good things from now on because this kind of engines live maximum 350k km. Any thoughts? submitted by /u/Parking_Talk_2914 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

So im planning on buying an older v40, the estate. And im looking at one website in Lithuania and i keep seeing 185g/km (co2 emissions) on some of them (mostly pre 2003) and i tried to google it and it does not say anything about v40 emitting 185g/km of co2 (only 142g/km) Could this be some kind of missinformation or is there actually some kind of year that they were more "unfriendly" yo the enviroment. I wouldn't be confused if it was only one of the cars for sale that had 185 written on them but i saw a few of them. Im asking cuz Lithuanian laws are bullshit and sometimes you could get stop ..read more

Hello guys, I have some idle problems with my V40 D4 from 2015. I noticed that when is warm outside engine tends to die. i will attach here some videos. Also always idle is not constant. (In the video check engine is on due to EGR valve, I believed that’s the problem, now check engine light is off, egr problem solved but still same symptoms) submitted by /u/Parking_Talk_2914 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi all, I was about to pull the trigger on a 2013 V40 T5, however I’ve just found another with a full exhaust, diffuser and chip tube from heico evolution come up for sale (and in budget). The car has only done 66k km (41k miles). Will this tune drastically reduce engine life? How is the reliability of the B5254T12 with and without the tune? The upgraded exhaust definitely sounds incredible! Any feedback is much appreciated! submitted by /u/adamladam484 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
