- EGR valve and cooler clogging(Moderate)
VEA diesels build soot in the EGR system and begin to hesitate, warn or fail emissions tests if the car mostly does short trips.

Compressors can seize or stop cooling properly, and in the worst cases the auxiliary belt can be affected too.
- Snapped rear coil springs(Moderate)
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.
