I have a 2005

Check your cam shaft position sensor. If that is good, and reading the correct voltage, then the next thing to check would be for proper ground at the injectors and the ECU. If you do not have a good ground, wire loose or broken then this can happen.

Cigarette lighter does not work

are you useing the lighter as a lighter or pluging in an acc.. heavy smokers wear out the element 1rst. try testing the socket with a test light. touch the stud inside the socket, the back part with the tester, do not touch the side or you will blow the fuse, touch the edge of the socket with the tester ground clip. if the test light lights up, wiring is good and element is burnt inside, you need new. if acc. is plugged in sometimes prongs in socket will bend out of place, use a popcicle stick to rebend.

Is the car locking system

key programming is seperate on older vehicles with a seperate transponder and transponder reader but integrated on newer models ,return car to garage and ask them to look at it again but if it was a software upgrade on the computer then their are new laws within the EEC regarding the self locking of cars and some member countries have been lobying against it and want it removed from cars as its dangerous in a accident ,so i honestly couldnt say as to weither this vehicle was re-programmed to current europeon norms,personally after getting burnt trying to get some kids out of a locked car in a accident and watch them burn to death as the gas tank went up and i couldnt get close enough with anything in my hand to smash the window glass iam in favour or removing self locking doors

I have a Volvo S40.

Sounds as though the fuel sending unit is either stuck, or the float is broken. Try tapping the tank with a rubber hammer to see if that helps, other then that your next option would be to pull the sending unit out all together and replace.

I have a problem with

I don't know why you would be at a dealer,
unless your car was under warrantee

Of coarse you can resolve yourself

Check the door seals

Go to a local repair shop and
borrow the air hose, to blow out the
drains on the bottom of the doors

If you have a sun roof, the drain hose may be off.
In which case you remove the sun visors and
whatever else to drop the head liner and reinstall the hose
