Low octane fuel can cause this, try using 90+ octane and see if it stops.

SOURCE: engine management light volvo s40 problem

The best thing is to go to your local Volvo maintenance shop or Volvo experts to find out whats the problem..usually the coomon ones I think is the programs inside its ECU unit..you try this..ask the volvo experts to reset the ECU and lets see..if problem arise then it is no doubt you might need the sensor..hope this help..

SOURCE: Where is the fuel filter in a Volvo S40 2005

Yes that is correct. The only filter is inside the fuel tank, and as I recall its a non exchangeable filter. It just gets replaced with the fuel pump when it goes bad

2006 volvo s40 stalls at idle in first gear

You have lots of codes

Have you not used Google to look them up?

I doubt all the codes are failed system issues

I suggest to anyone coming to this site, to use the
services of a repair shop or buy & learn how to use professional
scan tool software,I fail to see how you can diagnose anything
without it

Where is the fuel line on a 2006 volvo s40

There are fuel lines leading from the back of the car, from the fuel tank, all the way to the front of the vehicle, leading up to the engine. Which one specifically are you looking for?

I have a 2006 Volvo S40 and the check engine light has recently come on. I just had the 60k mi service about a month ago.

Have the vehicle scanned at a local parts store and have them retrieve the code. Once you have the code, let me know and we can diagnose it properly and effectively.

The check engine light is on. How can I find out

Volvo dont have the same system, I have a Grand Cherokee too, and this way to know the codes is so nice. For your vehicle juts nee to visit any autozone or someone dealer to scan the PCM.

Good luck (remember rated this).

2006 volvo s40 50,000 mi. noticed a noise under hood that sounded like a belt slipping. sounded more like it was coming from the back of the motor. With the car running,I took the oil dip stick out and the...

The oil filter housing also houses the pcv system. What causes the noise is that there is a check valve in the pcv system that is supposed to regulate the pressure in the crankcase. The valve gets stuck and causes vacuum to build in the crankcase, which in turn sucks air wherever it can causing the noise, which is also why when you pull the dipstick it stops. This can also cause a check engine light with codes for fuel trim. The oil filter housing will need to be replaced. Good news is that Volvo extended the warranty on these to 100K miles so it should be free of charge at the dealer. One thing to watch for is oil leaks after the replacement from the camshaft seals. If air can get past a seal, usually oil can too. If the seals leak too long it can contaminate the timing belt and cause it to break, which causes a lot of damage.
