Compressors can seize or stop cooling properly, and in the worst cases the auxiliary belt can be affected too.

The V40 is known for snapping its rear coil springs, often discovered during MOT tests or as a metallic clinking sound over bumps.
- Water ingress around windscreen and scuttle(Moderate)
Poor sealing can let water into the passenger footwell and eventually upset electrical modules or create persistent misting.
