Take it in.

You will want to take it into the shop. I had the same exact problem (probably the same snow storm!). I got stuck as well in the snow. When I took my car into my repair shop (not the stealer/dealer) we found that the underside of the car was completely packed with snow and ice. They let the snow and...

Same issue here

I have the same problem with my 2001 V40. I am in the US, BTW. The rear wiper only touched the sides, but not the top of the window. So they are telling you to replace the wiper arm?

Same Problem Here

I am very interested to see some information on this as well. I have a 2001 V40 with the same problem. No trip computer, but fuel gauge dives fast. When I am on empty, I still have about 6 gallons left according to my calculations. Mine gets about 24MPG. Do you do mostly highway driving?

Should I get the HU-615 or something aftermarket? Looks like the going rate for an HU-615 is $185 on eB...

I talked to the parts department and they told me to have the service department look at the radio. I will be taking the car in next week to have it looked at. I will let you know what happens.

2001 V40, No Radio Code Works

I recently purchased a 2001 V40 at a car auction and have tried 2 different radio codes the local Volvo dealer gave me. One was based off the VIN, the other was based off the S/N of the unit (HU-615). Neither one has worked. Is there any way to make this radio work? Will I have to buy a new one? Any...
