"Not sure!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

For the past year my 2001 Volvo S40 has had several problems. The engine light keeps coming on and the dealer can't find the reason. The inside temperature gauge is no longer working either. Also, the car sometimes will not start the first or second time you try. The car has been to the dealership a lot! So far, they have replaced the front and back sensors at least twice and tested the computer... still no fix! I do love the car and did not want to trade it just yet...HELP!!!

General comments?

I like the car, but am really worried about taking it too far or driving it at night, in case it does not start!

Sounds like you got one of the earlier NedCar built models.

I had the same problem with the starting. It was anxiety provoking, after many visits they finally solved the problem by replacing the fuel pressure regulator. No problem since.
