2001 Volvo S40 1.8
Summary:
Cheap but respectful
Faults:
Front axle revision. There was shaking when accelerating. One of the front axles was loose. Repaired.
Steering power was noisy, repaired.
Cooling fan was not working properly. Actually there is 2 steps for working. First one is for normal heating, second for over heating. In my car the first was not working.
Steering wheel leather is badly worn, I will change it.
Front light wiper engine (left) is not working. It costs like 200 euros here. So I just unplugged it.
Interior door coatings are not stable, I glued them back.
Looks like my car did not receive much attention from the previous owner. Up to now I spent 1/4 more money than the price I bought it for. I am feeling everything is okay now, we will see...
General Comments:
Looks nice, cheap buying price, good reputation.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know
