Help needed on which Diesel engine V40 to buy.
My wife is due to change her car and wants a V40. Not new, but MY14/15.
I own a XC60 D5.
I believe some V40’s are 4 cylinders and some 5 cylinders.
Is there a buying guide on what to look out for?
I have read that the 1.6 D2 engine is not very reliable?
Any help greatly appreciated.
