Expert Answers about Volvo S40


  • Will Thule Raceway 3 Bike Carrier Fit on 2010 Volvo S40 With Spoiler
  • After some research and checking the Thule fitguide, I have found the Thule OutWay 3 Bike Carrier # TH56BV is a compatible fit for your 2010 Volvo S40 with a factory spoiler. This rack features anti-sway cradles, a cable lock, and a patented dial system for mounting the rack to your vehicle. If you plan on carrying women's or children's bikes, you may be interested in the Thule Bike Adapter # TH982XT. It provides a horizontal bar to these bikes, allowing them to be transported more levelly...

  • Visibility of the Curt Class I Hitch on a 2009 Volvo S40
  • We have not had a chance to install this hitch on a vehicle like your 2009 Volvo S40, but I spoke with my contact at Curt and he said the majority of this trailer hitch will not be visible. The top of the receiver will sit flush with the bottom of your bumper fascia. He did mention that you may be able to see the bottom part of the mounting arms that extend just past the crossbar on both sides. I have attached installation instructions for you to check out. If you plan on doing any light...

  • Can I Put A Thule Roof Rack On My 2009 Volvo S40
  • We have a fit for your 2009 Volvo S40, but Thule no longer uses the Thule 400 XT Aero foot pack. It was replaced by the Thule Traverse foot, or 480XT, and new fit kits. The Thule Traverse foot is not backwards compatible, therefore the older 400 XT fit kits do not work on the new feet. The old square Thule crossbars that fit the 400 XT Aero foot pack are not compatible with the new Thule foot. Not only have the Thule feet changed, the Thule crossbars have also changed. Here is the Thule...

  • What Tire Chains Will Fit a 2004 Volvo S40
  • The list of tire sizes compatible with the Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains, # PW1030, can be found on the product page near the bottom. The list is quite extensive but does not include a 205/55-16 tire size. Instead, you would need to use the Glacier Tire Chains, # PW1034, for your 2005 Volvo S40.

  • Carrying Bikes on a 2008 Volvo S40 T5
  • I contacted our representative at Thule and she informed me that the Thule OutWay Platform 2 Bike Carrier, part # TH65JV, will fit the standard model 2008 Volvo S40. She could not confirm that # TH65JV would fit the T5 model. I did some research on the internet and found that the T5 is the AWD Turbo model. Also, that the T5 can come equipped with a rear spoiler and added fascia. If your Volvo S40 T5 is equipped with a spoiler, the Thule OutWay may not fit. Since the T5 comes with added...
