Do you know if the T2 also suffers from these problems? I think I could deal with the cut in mpg as long as the engine doesn’t suffer the same design fault |

Any idea what you'll go for next? I think its more of an issue with diesel VEA engines.

Maybe a T2, but will definitely be buying with a few months warranty to allow me to keep an eye on oil consumption/EML through some driving, any other things to look out for? Barring that I may just go for something Japanese like a civic or Prius around the same age but I do really love the V40 style and drive even more so than many VAG cars I’ve owned, just such a shame the diesels had this fatal flaw which doesn’t appear to have been fixed even with the rework. I don’t think we will be seeing the VEA blocks run to the mileage some of the other Volvo engines do |
