I have a'98 Volvo S40 2.0 non turbo, recently it sputter's and idles rough for sometimes 5- 20seconds then suddenly idles smooth. It only run's smooth if allowed to warm up for 5minutes including accelerates rapid. If not allowed to warm up it sputter's and almost stalls. Please assist.

You may have an old engine oil, why don't you have your car service and change oil and oil filter as well. Then if the problem still appears, then that's the time to start tracing where the problem really starts.

Volvo s40 2005 starting but not accelarating

Do you have anymore information. If so please forward everything you have regarding this problem. If the car is starting, running but not accelerating there may be a problem with the accelerator pedal position sensor or related circuit. Usually the engine light will turn on because the EMC identified a fault and a code or codes will be stored. If the engine light is on or flashing please have the codes read. Any questions please write back. Good Luck.

My volvo S40 I know has a small leak, I went to top it up with rad fluid and it was thick as mud all grey i use prestone. Can you help me.it is a heat wave

Sounds like you got motor oil in your coolant. What does the motor oil look like on the dipstick? If it's the same milky, muddy color and thick, you need to have some major work done. Either a head gasket or cracked head or block. If the motor oil looks OK, you need to drain, flush/clean, and refill your cooling system with fresh coolant. I would strongly recommend having an experienced mechanic check it out for you.

My 2002 volvo s40 1.9 T smokes really bad its bluish in color, it seems to smoke more when at a stop. its burning oil...

Blue smoke is often the result of bad rings on the pistons. Engine rebuild time. It is possible that the turbo is leaking oil into your engine.

My volvo v50 batts went down, i tried to jump

Try locking and opening the doors it should reset this way. If not look at the fuzes under the glove box. If this all fails get it diagnosed at a Garrage.

Intermittent problems with the power

I'd first check wire harness at door hinge area. Try window with door open then in different positions. Wires in that area break within enclosure. grasp harness and move it around, basically try to make widow work. starting car increases voltage to 14 volts. car not running battery should be at just over 12. if applicable You mite have fuse for that door, it's not "blown" but mite be dirty and not making good contact. window and lock use same sources for power and grounds. Then again issue mite be in driver side door but same wire issue . Good luck,
