Volvo S40 Flywheel
The Volvo S40 Flywheel converts the raw combustion pulse into useful motion by locking in rotational energy, providing a starter ring to crank, and putting the clutch on a solid surface to hold. It rotates with each engine cycle, attached to the crankshaft, and its mass counterbalances the sudden spurts from each cylinder in the engine to provide the driveshaft with a continuous flow of power. Once a driver twists the key, the starter motor engages the ring gear, which rotates the Flywheel and turns the crank until the engine fires, after which an overrunning clutch releases the gear. The heat can mark or scar the Flywheel face every time the clutch disc grabs against it during a gear change, and repeated heat can cause the disc to be scored or warped. It can be repaired through machining; however, Volvo permits only a small amount of material to be removed when correcting runout, and a new part is usually safe. Volvo has over the years employed two styles. The old solid disc is a one-piece steel disc, which is sometimes resurfaced. Newer vehicles tend to have a dual mass design, which places springs between the primary and secondary plates that suppress vibrations and enhance the feel of the shift, an aspect that is greatly appreciated in smaller sedans such as the second generation S40. Nevertheless, the internal damper may fail, and factory recommendations normally prohibit resurfacing, so replacement is the only remedy. Solid or dual mass, to ensure a Volvo engine will kick-start and shift smoothly, it is important to have a clean friction face and good ring gear.
OEM parts are the only choice for top quality and real functionality. They pass strict checks, and they match Volvo's factory specs, so installation is easy.

Volvo S40 Flywheel Parts and Q&A
- Q: How to remove and refit a transmission and flywheel while ensuring proper alignment and component inspection for 1.8 and 2.0 litre petrol engines on Volvo S40?A:To remove the transmission, check components such as oil seals and renew them if necessary. Next comes removing the clutch and inspecting or replacing its parts. Make alignment marks on the flywheel and crankshaft so that proper alignment can be achieved during refitting. Prevent the flywheel from turning by locking the teeth of the ring gear or bolting a strap between flywheel and cylinder block/ crankcase and slacken the bolts evenly until all are free. Remove each of the bolts in turn, taking care to get new ones for reassembling as these bolts are exposed to severe stress and it is necessary to renew them whenever disturbed. Use caution to remove the heavy flywheel from the end of the crankshaft. Clean the flywheel to remove the grease and oil from the flywheel, looking for cracks, rivet grooves, burned areas and score marks (light scoring can be removed with emery cloth). Check for cracked and broken teeth on ring gears and lay the flywheel on a flat surface and check for warpage. Clean and check the mating surfaces of the flywheel and the crankshaft, replacing the crankshaft left-hand oil seal in the event of a leak, before refitting the flywheel. While the flywheel is out of the way, clean its inboard face and the threaded bolt holes in the crankshaft because old sealer can prevent things from turning properly. When refitting, align the flywheel to the crankshaft using the marks taken when it was removed, use appropriate sealer for the threads of the new bolts, and insert them with locking fluid. Lock the flywheel with the same procedure as used on dismantling and tighten the new bolts, in diagonals, to the specified torque wrench setting, increasing to the final amount in 3 stages. The rest of reassembly is the reverse of the removal procedure with details as required.
- Q: What are the steps required for refitting a new flywheel and driveplate retaining bolts for 2.4 litre petrol engine on Volvo S40?A:New flywheel and driveplate retaining bolts will be required for refitting. To remove the flywheel, first of all, remove the transmission and the clutch assembly and make some alignment marks to refit the flywheel correctly. Loosen the flywheel bolts without rotating the crankshaft by placing a large screwdriver inside the ring gear teeth against an adjoining dowel. Support the flywheel, pull out the bolts and lower the flywheel carefully so that it doesn't drop. For the driveplate, remove the automatic transmission and make alignment marks for refitting. Unbolt and inspect the driveplate; if the clutch mating surface of the flywheel is damaged, the flywheel clutch mating surface needs to be renewed or possibly surface ground. For automatic transmission models, look for distortion on the torque converter driveplate and check for cracks or wear, and renewal is required if any damage is detected. For refitting the flywheel, clean the mating surfaces and remove any locking compound out of the crankshaft holes. Reverse the removal operations, placing thread-locking compound on the new retaining bolts and tightening them to the specified torque (make sure the flywheel is correctly located against the crankshaft before inserting the bolts). Finally refit the clutch and the transmission and for manual transmission models, follow the same procedure for the driveplate, ignore references to the clutch before refitting the transmission.
