Had I just gone ahead and ordered what the suppliers said were correct, I would have had big problems.
I'll throw a few other suggestions out there, that you may have considered, in the absence of some actual help from someone.
  • Phone up a few different dealers, you just need one of them to give you the part number.
  • Try a Volvo Indi, they may be more amenable to giving the info.
  • Try a Volvo Specialist parts place, they may be able to access the correct info.
  • Can you access the parts number for an earlier model year V40 same spec, I'd be kinda surprised if the parts changed later in the models life, but you're back to your original problem of risking the wrong part.

Hopefully someone will provide actual help.
