The Starting Line

My 2005 Volvo S40 2.5i will take me on a journey through two path: one on the road and another in the garage. Here are some handy tools you might find useful for your journey.

• Haynes Workshop Repair Manual



• OBD-II Scanner
• Metric tools set.
• Soldering Iron

 I am not a mechanic, so follow my instruction at your own risk.

Before you start, find out if there is a recall for the problem from your service center. Volvo willl repair it for free if the problem is in the recall list.
