Volvo · Passenger car - Volvo S40/V50
This product poses a serious risk of injury because of a communication error between the central electronic module and the engine control module. Thus, in rare cases the engine oil can get enriched by diesel potentially causing the engine to over run - also when switching of the ignition - which may cause the engine to break down.
