Talk:Volvo S40

message: These inline fives have been continually developed by Volvo since the debut of the engine in the 850, in 1993. 
: This is wrong, Volvo does not build his own engines, the engine in the 850 came from VW,Germany.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.39.251.110 (talk) 09:44, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  very wrong. volvo indeed developed the alloy engine itself (with help from porsche) btu initially it was a 6 cylinder used in the 960--Lotsofmagnets (talk) 19:35, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

text: Just so that you know - the standard is to have every infobox begin in the section which it pertains to, and list no more than three similar cars. Models listed in the "similar" field should be actually similar to the model in this way or another (save for related models, which should go in the "related" field), and not necessairly competitors.

message: I just noticed that somewone replaced the word estate with station wagon, why is that? --Dahlis 12:33, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Station Wagon/Estate 

message: the title of the article completekly ignores the estate version (V40 and V50) so perhaps it's an idea either to consider a separate article for the estates or a title that somehow reflects the range--Lotsofmagnets (talk) 19:33, 28 February 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  estates in the title 

message: As with most car wikis the mixing of NA and Euro specs makes it very difficult for the reader to figure out which applies ti which region. Additionally, I notice there is no mention of the 2.4L gas engine available in NA. There almost needs to be separate pages if not at least separate sections to discuss the NA and euro cars. 108.172.114.141 (talk) 23:19, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Euro vs NA spec 

message: In what way is this car related to the Proton Waja/Impian or the Mitsubishi Carisma? Lukeno94 (talk) 14:48, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The S40 and the Carisma went down the same NedCar production line during the 1990s which was jointly owned by Volvo and Mitsubishi, and presumably the Proton shared some Mitsubishi bits... <B>Warren</B> (talk) 15:10, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Didn't know about the production line, so thanks. The Waja was the first solely Proton-designed car that Proton did - the only thing it and the Carisma shared was the engines. Lukeno94 (talk) 16:54, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Related cars 

message: The S60 and V70 have separate pages, so I think the V40/V50 should have their own page as well. The estate/station wagon version sold substantially more than the sedan and had different drivetrain choices in various markets. Is there any reason to keep them together?Ryanneve (talk) 19:18, 22 January 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Split into S40 and V40/V50 

message: I'm having really hand time finding anything about the 1.6 turbo petrol engine that this page claims was installed from 2010. Linked source is down, archive of that source shows no evidence of that engine, owners manual says nothing about this engine in this car.
Also the D5 and 2.0D engines are missing.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mr-fix (talk • contribs) 22:18, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
