Volvo 240 Parts

Having became an image of Scandinavian engineering over two decades of longevity, vehicle safety, and mechanical complexity, the Volvo 240 represents one of the classic models of the iconic Volvo 200 series made between 1974 and 1993. The Volvo 240 was constructed on a redesigned unibody system on the foundation of the previous 140 series, incorporating a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive choice aided with MacPherson strut front suspension and sophisticated rear live axle, to provide the stability of handling as well as the convenience of maintenance. There was predominantly power enjoyed through the strong, highly competitive Redblock engines that were inline four-cylinders ranging between 2.0L and 2.3L (B19, B21, B23, B230) and either overhead valve or overhead cams. DLs fitted with a PRV V6 or Volkswagen-sourced diesel. There were transmission choices of 4 and 5-speed manuals and 3 or 4 speed automatics, the AW 70 being an average unit. Consists of the 2-door (242), 4-door (244), 5-door wagon (245) models measured in terms of key dimensions; a wheelbase worthy of the label of the mid-size category (a 104.3-inch), width (67.3-inch), and length (approximately 190-inch). The Volvo 240 was later upgraded and usually did facelifts during its lifetime, including the inclusion of more safety technology like crumple zones, reinforced body, rack-and-pinion steering, twin-circuit brakes, and optional ABS and airbags. The Volvo 240 was known to be in a high safety standards in the whole worldwide standard, very popular among families, professions, and safety minded customers. Volvo 240 is placed on a comprehensive list of its replacement and upgrade parts, applied across all major systems (engine, transmission, suspension, braking, cooling, steering, body, and lighting) with its current high compatibility and maintainability.
