2003 Volvo S40 review from North America
"This car has too many kinks to work out to actually enjoy owning it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced motor mounts.
Full brake job.
Replaced struts and mounts.
Replaced fuel pressure regulator.
Replaced transmission module.
Needs new exhaust manifold.
General comments?
This car is very comfortable.
But it doesn't have the reliability I expect from Volvo.
It has cost me more to own this car than any other.
