2018 Volvo V40: what owners report

• German TÜV data show oil loss on the second-generation V40 about five times more often than the inspection average; it is the model's best-known weakness.2012–2019
• ADAC breakdown data for the second generation flag injectors on 2012 cars and batteries on 2012 and 2014 cars, while cars from 2015 on are consistently good.2012–2019
• Visibility is the lowest-scored area among owners of the second generation, and a German used-car check calls the boot modest and says the rear seat gives way to looks.2012–2019
• In the UK Driver Power 2019 survey the V40 was about average for reliability, with 9.5% of owners reporting a fault; owners were less impressed by running costs, the dated infotainment, ride comfort and handling.2012–2019
