V40 D2 Powershift

Depending upon how you intend to use your car, we would suggest you look for a 1.6 D2 diesel as the best all-round engine choice for earlier cars and the 2.0 D2 for post-2015 models. Both manage to motivate the V40 with adequate pace, although it’s not quite as effortlessly as those of the Audi A3 or Volkswagen Golf. The D3 and D4 make the V40 surprisingly fast, but they start becoming a bit too expensive to buy and run when compared with the D2.

Märke Volvo Modell V40 Årsmodell 2014 Miltal 11 500 mil Regnr DBZ813 Karosseri Halvkombi Drivmedel Diesel Växellåda Automatisk Drivhjul 2WD Färg SVART DBZ813Man kanske ska ta det med en liten nypa sakt iochmed att det kommer från en Volvosäljare, men ändå intressant info som man kanske ska ha i bakhuvudet OM nu trådskaparen köper sig en Volvo.

Du får olika växellådor i D2 eller D3 oavsett om du väljer manuell eller automat. Alla fyra alternativ är dock 6-växlade, men det kan ju vara intressant att jämföra utväxlingen mellan de två manuella alternativen.

D2 (115hk) räcker nästan garanterat till, men kommer förmodligen upplevas tröttare än 9-3 i många situationer. Den är dock lätt att köra snålt, Du kommer inte har några problem att nå lägre förbrukning än vad du gör med din 9-3. Oavsett om du väljer automat eller manuell bör tilläggas. Jag upplever inte att automaten ökar förbrukningen nämnvärt, något ytterst lite möjligtvis.Jag hade inte en tanke på det med stolarna heller, har du värk i kroppen så blir det nog väldigt svårt att hitta något bättre, Saab gjorde enligt mig, och många med mig, de bästa stolarna av alla, har nog aldrig suttit obekvämt i en Saab… Av (Nyare) Volvo är det bara V70N jag kört riktigt långt med och dom håller samma klass som Saab iaf.

Vill ju gärna behålla känslan som man har när man åker i 9-3 :an. Var och tittade på en V60 D3:a i förrgår, den kändes mer rätt i storlek men var inte så skön att sitta i och stolarna måste ställas in manuellt, Låter kanske trivialt men har vant sig med en viss standard känns det svårt att byta ner sig. Det kommer bli svårt att hitta en bil som är bättre än 9-3:an. Kruxet är ju att bilen blir mindre värd som inbytesbil om vi behåller den som #7 föreslår. Ska leta efter en V60 D4 som #22 tipsar om, det låter ju bra om den kan svara upp mot 9-3:an.

Ska byta ut vår SAAB 9-3 Linear Diesel från 2007. Pendlar 13 mil om dagen mestadels på 110 km motorväg 2+1 med vajerräcke. Ofta hamnar man bakom en lastbil så det blir en del 90 körning med. Har haft olika SAAB bilar genom åren och älskar deras säkerhet ”som på räls” och körglädjen den ger. Bilen vi har idag har gått 19 000 mil och vi har nyligen bytt kamrem, vattenpump, vipparmar och kamaxel. Den kan komma ned till 0,54 om man kör i jämn hastighet på motorväg. Har lyckat med det på 2+2 motorväg. Att köpa en nyare SAAB idag känns inte lika säkert som förut då den i princip har försvunnit. Har tittat på några olika Volvovarianter och har fastnat för V40 Momentum. Gillar utseendet men känner mej inte så hemma på Volvobilar. Kan någon komma med råd och info om hur de är att köra: väghållning, hur mycket de drar / mil, sittkomfort, etc. Kan naturligtvis testa själv men kommer förmodligen bara att jämföra Volvon mot SAABen och då kommer nog SAABen att vinna då jag känner den bättre. Tacksam för svar:)Har en kompis som kör mycket i tjänsten och han hade under ett drygt år en V50 som tjänstebil men stolarna i den passade inte honom alls så det blev en Mondeo som tjänstebil – och en till sån när det var dags att byta efter ca: 2 år. Det var t o m så att hans hustrus Focus (förra generationen) fungerade betydligt bättre för honom än Volvon. Även han är nog av ungefär samma storlek som Masse.

När det gäller automatlådorna är D2ans av typen ”Powershift” vilket jag tror motsvaras VWs DSG funktionsmässigt. Personligen gillar jag inte denna om man kör mycket i stan, men i annat fall är den sjukt trevlig att köra och som sagt förbrukningsmässigt kommer den inte till korta mot den manuella varianten. D3ans låda heter geartronic och är vad jag förstår en klassisk automatlåda, otroligt mycket skönare att köra i alla lägen, om du frågar mig, men lite törstigare som nackdel. Med båda växellådorna kan man välja växel själv om det är något som är intressant. D3 (150hk) däremot är en rapp motor när den sätts i en relativt liten bil som V40. 350 Nm mot D2:ans 270 Nm, vridet börjar dessutom tidigare och finns kvar längre upp på varvmätaren i D3 jämfört med D2. Motorn är snål men inte alls lika snål som D2, men om du behöver jämn fart på motorväg för att komma ner i 0,54 l/mil med SAABen låter det som att den skulle vara snålare än SAAben i alla fall. I vart fall med manuell låda, minns inte riktigt vad jag brukar ha för förbrukning med automaten. Skillnaden mellan automat och manuell är dock större i D3 än D2. Hej allihopa, och tack för era synpunkter. Blev glatt överraskad att så många har svarat. Har idag varit och provkört en V40 Momentum och den var helt ok att köra men kändes lite B om man jämförde med vår gamla SAAB när det gällde material och teknik. Var även in och tittade på en ny VW Golf Sports Combi TDI 105. Den hade lite bättre teknisk utrustning och var lagom i storlek, sportstolarna var riktigt sköna att sitta i. Har beställt en provtur till nästa helg för att kunna känna på den lite bättre.The next time you start your car, pay close attention to the lights in your dashboard. All of the lights should turn on for a few seconds when you first start your vehicle. When these lights turn on, look for an AWD light. In some vehicles, the AWD light is simply an illuminated “AWD.” But in other cars, the icon features two car axles with the word “LOCK” underneath them. If you see this light turn on when you start your car, this means your vehicle has an AWD system.

For example, a 4WD drivetrain system is used to help vehicles safely travel over boulders, through deep water, and in other off-roading situations. For this reason, most vehicles that are designed for off-road use are built with 4WD drivetrains. If you own a Jeep that is primarily used for off-roading adventures, it’s very likely that the vehicle has 4WD rather than AWD.

The AWD lock button typically looks similar to the AWD light dashboard. That means it will either say “AWD” or feature two car axles with the word “LOCK” underneath it. If you spot an AWD button on your center console, this means your car has an AWD system.Every vehicle is equipped with a drivetrain, which is a system that sends power from the engine to the wheels. One type of draintrain system is known as all-wheel drive, or AWD. There are several different types of drivetrain systems, including AWD, four-wheel drive (4WD), front-wheel drive (FWD), and rear-wheel drive (RWD). Knowing what type of drivetrain system is typically used on the type of vehicle you have may help you determine whether your vehicle has AWD. For example, the owner’s manual for the Ford Edge SUV has a section called “All-Wheel Drive.” This section includes a brief explanation on how AWD works, safety precautions, and the limitations of this type of drivetrain system.For example, if you are buying a used vehicle from a private party, you can use the VIN to pull up the vehicle history report, which will tell you more about the vehicle’s history of accidents, repairs, and previous owners. If you take your vehicle in for repairs, the auto shop will most likely use the VIN to access information about the vehicle’s transmission, engine, and repair history.Every vehicle has a unique vehicle identification number, or VIN. Think of the VIN as an automotive fingerprint–no two vehicles have the same one. The VIN is a string of 17 numbers and letters that can be found on the driver’s side of the windshield. If you can’t read the VIN on the dashboard, check your vehicle registration instead.

It’s important to know what type of drivetrain your vehicle has, especially if you are purchasing a new part for your car, going on a road trip, performing maintenance on your vehicle, planning on getting your car towed, or selling it to a private party.The next method you can use to determine whether your car has AWD is checking the owner’s manual. The type of drivetrain system your vehicle has should be listed in the “Features” section of the owner’s manual. But if you can’t find it there, skim through the rest of the owner’s manual to look for other references of the drivetrain system.

Simply enter your VIN into the search bar to get started. The tool will then generate information about your vehicle. There should be a section of the report titled “Vehicle Specifications.” In this section, look for the “drive type” or “drivetrain” header. If it says AWD, this means your vehicle has an AWD system. Pulling up information using your VIN or looking under your vehicle are the best ways to determine if your car has AWD. However, there are other clues you can look for to confirm that your car has AWD. On the other hand, if your car was made before 1990, chances are it has a RWD drivetrain. Prior to the 1990s, RWD was the most common type of drivetrain system in passenger vehicles.

To do this, head to the back of your vehicle. See if your vehicle has a rear differential, which is about the size of a pumpkin. The rear differential should be located right in the middle of the two rear wheels. There should also be one metal rod extending from each side of the rear differential. Each of these rods should connect the rear differential to one of the rear wheels. If you see this configuration, this means your vehicle sends power to your rear wheels.Start with the front wheels of your car. Find the wheel knuckle, which is located on the backside of each wheel. Then, look for a metal rod that attaches in the center of the wheel knuckle. There should be a cone-shaped piece of rubber where the metal rod meets the wheel. If you see this shaft, this means your vehicle sends power to your front wheels, so you can eliminate the possibility that your vehicle is RWD.Now, you know your vehicle sends power to both the front and rear wheels, so it is either AWD or 4WD. To figure out which one it is, pop the hood and locate the engine. If your engine is transversely mounted, which means it sits sideways under your hood, this means your vehicle is AWD, not 4WD.You should also take a look around the interior of your vehicle, specifically the center console. Some AWD vehicles have AWD lock buttons that allow the driver to manually keep the AWD system on to maximize traction when climbing steep hills or driving on muddy or sandy roads.A good place to start is the table of contents. Many owner’s manuals include sections that are dedicated solely to information on the vehicle’s drivetrain.

This engine delivers high torque at low rpm. That means plenty of power and quick response when maneuvering in a marina, in strong head wind, and in confined spaces.

High-capacity charging is standard. The 115A alternator has an electronic sensor which enables ahigher battery capacity. Even at idle speed, the alternator gives more than 35A, and at cruising speed it delivers approx. 100A.Volvo Penta D2 is an in-line 4-cylinder, 2.2-liter, naturally aspirated diesel engine using a camdriven, in-line injection pump, and freshwater… Read more A propulsion system from Volvo Penta is easy to maintain.

There have been a few recalls regarding airbags that might not deploy correctly in a collision. The first is for the driver’s airbag on V40s made between 25 April 2016 and 15 May 2016, while the second affects examples built between 25 August 2016 and 5 October 2016. Contact your local Volvo dealer to make sure your car has had the relevant remedial work carried out.

Owners have also commented upon issues with bodywork and trim, so make sure that all the panels fit as they should. When you test-drive the car, make sure you try out all the electrical items to make sure they all work properly and keep an eye on the driver information screen in the middle of the speedometer for any error messages that may pop up.

It has been identified that there could be a coolant leak during the warm-up process of some V40s built between 6 February 2012 and 21 April 2015 that could result in an engine fire in extreme circumstances. Check with a Volvo dealer to make sure your car isn’t affected by this.

Volvo markets all engines under the Drive–E designation, while Geely groups the three-cylinder variants with its other engines under the G-power name. These engines are some of the few ever put into production as twincharged engines, in the company of the Lancia Delta Integrale and concept Jaguar CX-75. In December 2014, Volvo introduced the first hybrid variant of a VEA engine with the launch of the XC90 T8. It uses an electric rear axle drive (ERAD) for both electric propulsion and AWD capabilities. Hybrid engines are equipped with a crankshaft integrated starter generator (CISG) that is used to start the engine, capture otherwise lost energy when slowing down and reduce lag at low rpm by acting as an additional supercharger. Volvo refers to this type of hybrid implementation as Twin Engine.In the newly released S60 III and V60 II, and for all other models from and including model year 2020, it delivers 303 PS (223 kW; 299 hp) at 6000 rpm and 400 N⋅m (300 lb⋅ft) of torque between 2200–4800 rpm.

Engine variant for cars equipped with a manual gearbox. Single turbocharger. In the autumn of 2013, the first cars with the new engines were delivered to customers, starting with the S60 II and V60 models. At the same time, Volvo began to phase out the five-cylinder petrol and diesel engines, the six-cylinder petrol engines as well as any four-cylinder engines from other manufacturers. Until the end of 2015, nearly all other engines had been phased out, with only a few non VEA engines remaining in production for select models. Volvo nearly completed the phaseout in 2016 with only two variants of the five-cylinder diesel remaining in production for the 60-series models.

This engine was available with the M66F gearbox until model year 2017, afterwards it was available with the M76 gearbox. All model years are available with the AW TF-71SC gearbox.The B4204T17 (36) delivers 122 PS (90 kW; 120 hp) at 5000 rpm and 220 N⋅m (160 lb⋅ft) of torque between 1200–3500 rpm.

The engine codes consist of a series of letters and digits. The actual, broadly used engine code is 7 or 8 characters long. Hybrid models can have a second engine code that is 7 characters long, mild hybrids engine codes are 6 characters long. Different, more general engine codes are used for some certification and approval documents and are 6 to 8 characters long. An additional 2 characters are used to identify each specific engine variant with an MP or HP suffix to differentiate performance.

The D4204T20 (78) delivers 120 PS (88 kW; 118 hp) at 3750 rpm and 280 N⋅m (210 lb⋅ft) of torque between 1500–2250 rpm. Engine variant for cars equipped with an automatic gearbox. Single turbocharger.With the introduction of Volvo’s new flagship sedan in 2016, the S90, the PowerPulse anti-lag system for the top of the range diesel engines was unveiled. It uses a small tank of compressed air that can instantaneously be released into the turbocharger to help with spool up, thereby reducing turbo lag.

The B4204T11 (40) delivers 245 PS (180 kW; 242 hp) at 5500 rpm and 350 N⋅m (260 lb⋅ft) of torque between 1500–4800 rpm. The compression ratio was changed to 10.8:1. Single turbocharger.Development of the new engine family began in 2006, with the decision to only produce four-cylinder engines being finalised in 2007. The intention was to produce smaller, more economical and environmentally friendly engines that would be fitted to every Volvo model. In 2008 Volvo began to upgrade its Skövde engine plant and invested roughly 2 billion SEK into development and tooling for the VEA.

It was replaced by the newer engine B3154T7 which retains the same ID code of 11 but not 14; automatic was changed to B3154T2 which retains the same ID code of 15.The B3154T7 (11) delivers 163 PS (120 kW; 161 hp) at 5500 rpm and 265 N⋅m (195 lb⋅ft) of torque between 1850–3000 rpm.

Single turbocharger.Due to stricter emissions laws, additional and improved emissions control equipment was introduced, beginning in the second half of 2017 for the 2018 model year. Diesel engines gained a SCR-catalyst to decrease NOx emissions, petrol engines received a particle filter. These changes are referred to as VEA GEN2. This improved the emissions rating to Euro 6c and for some engines to Euro 6d-TEMP. The improvements were rolled out in stages and some engines, particularly the hybrid variants, remained in Euro 6 configuration until the second quarter of 2018. By model year 2019 all engines had been updated to achieve Euro 6d-TEMP certification, with some engines getting discontinued. All diesel engines are now equipped with Ad-Blue and all petrol engines with a particle filter.

The B4204T43 (A0) delivers 367 PS (270 kW; 362 hp) at 6000 rpm and 470 N⋅m (350 lb⋅ft) of torque between 3100–5100 rpm. The compression ratio was changed to 8.6:1. Turbocharger and supercharger.Volvo began testing of three-cylinder variants in mid 2014, it had been planned to introduce these engines in 2015. With their smaller capacity and less power they were meant to be used as base engines. In 2015 no three-cylinder engines were released, instead four-cylinder variants with 1.5 L capacity were introduced as base engines on some models. In the second half of 2017, the first production VEA three-cylinder engine was released with the debut of the LEVC TX, where it is used as a range extender. The first Volvo three-cylinder VEA was slated for introduction in 2018 for the XC40 under the T3 engine designation, however it saw only limited release. The B3154T2 (15) delivers 163 PS (120 kW; 161 hp) at 5500 rpm and 265 N⋅m (195 lb⋅ft) of torque between 1500–3000 rpm. Engine variant for cars equipped with an automatic gearbox. Single turbocharger. The B4204T47 (AC) delivers 190 PS (140 kW; 187 hp) at 4700 rpm and 300 N⋅m (220 lb⋅ft) of torque between 1400–4000 rpm. The compression ratio was changed to 11.3:1. Single turbocharger.The B3154T is usually only referred to as range extender. It delivers 82 PS (60 kW; 81 hp) at 4000 rpm and 255 N⋅m (188 lb⋅ft). When running it only recharges the high voltage battery, thus functioning as a range extender giving approx. 300 miles of additional range. Single turbocharger. The D420T8 / D4204T8 (K5) delivers 197 PS (145 kW; 194 hp) at 4000 rpm and 420 N⋅m (310 lb⋅ft) of torque between 1750–2750 rpm. The BISG delivers 14 PS (10 kW; 14 hp) at 3000 rpm and 50 N⋅m (37 lb⋅ft) of torque between 0–2300 rpm. Twin turbochargers. Vi använder egna och tredjepartscookies i analyssyfte och för att visa dig personanpassade annonser baserat på dina surfvanor.

Don’t be fooled by those rough and tough looks: the V40 Cross Country Edition isn’t a proper off-roader. In fact, it doesn’t even have four-wheel drive

In terms of list price, the Volvo V40 Cross Country Edition costs the same as the equivalent R-Design model and comes pretty well equipped. Then, as with other V40s, you can add some attractive option packs on top. These include the Winter pack (with heated seats and windscreen) and the Xenium pack, which includes electric front seats, a panoramic sunroof and an automatic parking system. There’s also the Intellisafe Pro pack, which brings lots of extra safety features, such as Adaptive Cruise Control, a Blind Spot Information system and Pedestrian and cyclist detection.

Compared with those other versions of the V40, this Cross Country Edition is available with a much smaller range of engines – just the D3 diesel and T3 petrol. The former comes with either a manual or an automatic gearbox, but the latter is only available with an automatic gearbox.

The two engines offer similar performance on paper, but the diesel is stronger at low revs, which makes it feel easier and quicker to respond in everyday traffic. It’s considerably more economical, too, so will make much more sense than the petrol-engined car if you do a high mileage each year.The Volvo V40 Cross Country is essentially a beefed-up version of the standard V40, with a few SUV-inspired styling tweaks and a raised ride height. As such, you might consider it as an alternative to models like the Skoda Octavia Scout and Volkswagen Golf Alltrack.

Overall, though, the V40 Cross Country is average at best. There are better-driving and more spacious hatchbacks than the V40; and, if you want a mainstream car with a hint of SUV about it, the Golf or Octavia are better places to spend your money.Also unlike those models, the V40 Cross Country Edition is not available with four-wheel drive. In fact, despite the SUV-ilke styling and extra ground clearance, it’s most at home on the road – and on the motorway, in particular, where it’s very quiet inside.

Admittedly, the firm set-up stops the car’s body rolling too much in the corners, but the steering gives you little idea of how much grip the front wheels have. Essentially, the Cross Country – like all V40s – is showing the age of its basic design and more modern cars are considerably better to drive.

To be able to change gear with the steering wheel paddles they must first be activated. This is by means of pulling one of the paddles toward the steering wheel – the combined instrument panel then changes indication from ”D” to a figure, which indicates the current gear.The Sport programme provides sportier characteristics and allows higher engine speed for the gears. At the same time it responds more quickly to acceleration. During active driving, the use of a lower gear is prioritised, leading to a delayed upshift.

Automatic gear positions are indicated on the right of the combined instrument panel. (Only one marker is illuminated at a time – the one showing the current gear selector position.)

In order to be able to move the gear selector from the N position to another gear position, the brake pedal must be depressed and the key position must be II.Geartronic automatically shifts down if the driver allows the speed to decrease lower than a level suitable for the selected gear, in order to avoid jerking and stalling. Geartronic does not permit downshifting/kick-down which would result in an engine speed high enough to damage the engine. Nothing happens if the driver still tries to shift down in this way at high engine speed – the original gear remains engaged. When kick-down is activated the car can change one or more gears at a time depending on engine speed. The car changes up when the engine reaches its maximum speed in order to prevent damage to the engine.f the gearbox has a Sport programme then the gearbox will only become manual after the lever has been moved forwards or backwards in its ”+/-” position. The combined instrument panel then shifts the indication from S to show which of the gears 1, 2, 3 etc. is engaged. D is the normal driving position. Shifting up and down takes place automatically based on the level of acceleration and speed. The car must be stationary when the gear selector is moved to position D from position R. When the accelerator pedal is pressed all the way to the floor (beyond the position normally regarded as full acceleration) a lower gear is immediately engaged. This is known as kick-down.
