Awesome work on capturing the dis- and assembling process. I'm planing to do this on my V40 D4. This video will help a lot and boosts my confidence to do it by my self! Thanks for that!
Excellent video, props to you. I don't own a Volvo with the VEA diesel but still find it interesting to watch. Big plus for including torque specs, hex and bolt sizes and showing a complete reassembly too. Well done.
Had the misfortune of needing to do this last year on a V70 in parallel with a DPF de-ash 😮 I found the most effective cleaner for the cooler was Bilt Hamber’s degreaser used neat with boiling water applied repeatedly and then using the strands from armoured cable to poke all the way into the channels one at a time - that was not fun 😵💫 Same product on the manifold and intake - BUT on the last valve the crud left a gap and leaked into the cylinder which was a bit of a brown trouser moment but thoroughly blowing it out with compressed air by removing the glow plug seemed to work 😬 The ECU then detected low compression (this was a software patch they added as I understand to stop the inlet melting 😮) but fortunately went away once the valves settled back to closing fully 😮💨
This is an excellent video. Thank you. My V40 (MY2015 V40 R-Design 190 with 120k miles on the clock) has been diagnosed as having stuck inlet runner vanes. I can see there is a lot of residue in the manifold by looking through through the MAP sensor hole. Is it likely that the runners or actuator will have been damaged or should a good clean fix the problem? The dealer proposed replacing the inlet manifold.
Hi, It really depends on the current state of the manifold. Sometimes carbon gets between the manifold and the runners shaft which can't really be cleaned manually. There are more professional methods with chemicals and ultrasound cleaning, but I'm not 100% if they would equally be applicable for plastic components. Unfortunately volvo had designed the manifold without the possibility of physically removing/deleting the runners, so best option would be to try giving it a good clean. The runners actuator is an easy one, you can remove it on its own and if you switch to ignition 2, I think from memory it would move once to closed/open position. Good luck.
@@GSAuto681 I cleaned my inlet manifold & ports using this video as a guide. I removed the manifold with the high pressure pipe left in place by removing the engine cover support on the top of the manifold at the LH end. It was in a right mess & I think this was the dirtiest job I've ever done but well worth it. I had intended cleaning the EGR valve/cooler as well but on the day did not have apprpriate tools to remove the 2 bolts holding the pipe at the rear of the EGR valve. In my case they are Torx screws rather than hex bolts. This will have to wait for another time. The EGR valve action was also very stiff (I wouldn't have been aware if I wasn't doing the maintenance) but I managed to make it operate very smoothly using WD40 and a little high temp grease. The actual swirl flap assembly can be carefully unclipped from the manifold moulding which gives better access to clean both parts. Reassembly with new gaskets went well & I've since done about 2000 miles with a much smoother engine. I've since bought a small OBDII scanner and I can see in live data that the flaps are correctly following the demand accross the whole range 0-90 deg. I do still however have a remaining problem. DTC P200900 sometimes gets reported on its own but not consistently - I may go several hundred miles or just a few. The freeze frame data doesn't seem helpful as it shows the engine not running. Any clues or advice?
@@user-yp5fb5kg3y Hi, I'm glad you've found the video useful. In terms of the fault code, that seems to me like a few things. It's either the runners still slightly sticking (quite disappointing volvo didn't make them deletable), it's the runners actuator not been mounted back correctly (if you've disassembled it), or it's the wiring/actuator itself. If you are going to verify the actuator mounting, before putting it back on the manifold, you can quickly verify its operation by switching to ignition 2, which will make it test itself/make a full arm movement, so at least you can rule out the actuator mechanism. Good luck with that!
Congratulations for this video tutorial! Made to perfection. Is it possible to know how many kilometers the car had when this work was done? Thank you.
Great video thank you very much. Could you advice me please. Would you be able to replace glow plugs on your Volvo without removing intake manifold? Appreciate if anyone could advice please

In the 8:43 part of the video, in my car, the screws are T30 torks, and this is impossible to remove. It's stuck. I've already applied WD to try to alleviate them, but I can't remove them, would there be any tips to help me?
Great video! you made it to look "easy" to do.... if theres an EGR check engine code, is it enough only to clean the EGR? The Manifold part looks hard for me :(
Absolutely. In fact on those engines most of the time it's the EGR cooler and not the valve, but surely if you taking it off can give a good clean to both!

It's not a hard job although Volvo will tell you it is and you need a timing tool to remove the lower crankshaft bolt, you don't I used white marker on crankshaft bolt and cam bolt the injector pump locks up with a 8mm bolt
@@GSAuto681 Let me ask you one more question about changing the timing belt. The camshaft moves slightly when tightening the timing belt tensioner. How do I adjust the timing belt tension?
@@fredflintstone2077 you can buy the Volvo tool to hold the crank shaft in place there are timing marks against the lower pulley and crankshaft oil seal the white marker will highlight these marks most automotive guys put the white marker on there so they are 100% sure the engine is still in time

Bravo, bravo, and such a demolition awaits me. Thank you for the instruction
Amazing clarity and quality video. Thank you for taking time making this and the enormous effort that has made it look so professional.

Try using a spanner or a long ratchet.
Thanks@@georgistefanov9166 . I have removed the part from back of the engine of the intake and with a long ratchet you have some space .

Is VEA D5 2.0 the same?
It seems the 2.0 VEA D5 is the same but has more power due to different ECU mapping. The "D5" is very different.
Vea d5 is i think the same, it just has a different tune on it
Great
