Default V40 engine cooling problem

Interesting to read the number of v40 owners having what seems to be an identical problem, ie, engine block coolant seepage. Just had a call that £700 needs to be spent to have the head removed to confirm it needs a new engine. I bought 3 of these models around the same time, 2015 (and still have them). There is clearly a manufacturing fault within the forged metal compound of the engine block for this to be happening on so many vehicles. I am in discussions with Volvo as I write and am determined to hold the manufacturer to account, even if it means litigation. Will keep the forum posted on the outcome.
