Car parts and drivetrain components for Volvo S40 1.8 I. Always check the fit before ordering.

No, drive shafts vary depending on the engine variant and gearbox type. It is therefore essential to filter by your specific model and engine details to find the exact version that fits your 1.8 I model.
A very common fault on this model is a cracked ABS ring caused by corrosion. When the ring fractures, the sensor can no longer read the wheel speed correctly, triggering the warning light on your dashboard.
Yes, if the shaft itself is undamaged and the wear is confined to the outer joint (often noticed as a clicking noise when cornering), you can save money by replacing just the CV joint.
Our kits typically include the CV joint itself, a model-specific CV boot, specialised grease, circlips, and clamps – everything you need for a complete replacement.
