Consumer Review Video - 2000 Volvo V40 1.9L 4 Cyl. Turbo
The 2000 Volvo V40 Turbo is an easy car to maintain. All of the tail lights are located behind single panels in the trunk lining, requiring no tools for removal and allowing for reliable bulb changes. Both fuse boxes are easy to access and the interior one comes provided with a fuse puller, so electrical troubleshooting shouldn’t be too difficult. Changing the engine air filter is no problem, as no tools are needed to disengage the housing to allow you access to the filter itself.
However, the 2000 Volvo V40 Turbo has its downsides. Reaching for the transmission fluid dipstick may be a problem, on account of its location deep in the engine bay. Similarly, the battery bracket also has a deep location and removing it could expose you to hot engine parts. Tools will be needed to remove the front turn signal housing, which won’t allow for reliable changes.
