HOT LAPPING a Volvo V40 T5 on the Nürburgring😬 

Good to see a lap with a Volvo. Always had a soft spot for them. Really love the design language of Volvo. They have been stepping up their game big time.

Do88 intercooler and focus RS oil cooler is what this man needs!

It was a pleasure!! Soon we will be back on the Nurburgring with some fresh tyres and more cooling 😎

Good to see a volvo on the channel for a change! That growl from the T-5 is the best sounding engines!

That five cylinder sound never grows old!

Finally my favourite brand of "normal" cars , sad it isn't the C70/C30R, or S60 or ofc the beast 850 xD. But whatever Volvo in track always a pleasure to see ^^

I have a V50 T5 AWD 6M. The IAT had to have been over 93 C and the computer pulled a ton of timing. D088 Intercooler or make a custom one from Treadstone should solve it, if the coolant temp was solid. The heat soak on the IC is FRIGHTENING on the T5’s during the summer.

So nice to see a Volvo on this channel, that 5 Cylinder sound is just so lovley. Would love to see you drive a C70 one day (first gen). I would give you mine but its a bit of a shitbox xD

I own a 2006 Volvo S60 2.5T AWD, the car has 318,794 km, with no problems, Greatest automobile I've owned, Volvo for life.

Nice to see Volvo here. Enjoying my XC60 R-Design D5 AWD with bi-turbo engine...

nice to see a volvo here! miss my 2001 n/a 5cyl manual s60... was such a joy to drive, even being fwd. the cluth and shifter were so good

💙Moose Time! Happy to see any here and even better being well lapped around the Ring 😊

That blue is one of the nicest factory colors

I have a T5 AWD 2.5 268 hp / 450 Nm (HEICO perfomance pack) and it seems to run a lot smoother than this, so not sure what's the issue here, but take a good look at it. Maybe the map? HEICO installs a whole seperate device to control everything and it works so smooth I totally recommend it.

Man I love Volvos!! My wife’s v70 5 cylinder has 450000km and it’s Stil a beauty❤

Volvo t5 (5cylinder engine) were my favourite regardless in any chassis... This one just need slightly sportier exhaust and maybe tcu remap...it will be a whole lot more fun... 😘💪 Hopgin for more volvo t5 content in future

I can pinpoint the exact spot where I decided to sell my V40 T5R: halfway between Adenauer Forst and Metzgesfeld, where the lone tree is on the left hand side (04:47) - car decided it was a bit to much traffic, did an emergency brake and called Volvo assistance thankyouverymuch. Luckily, the folks behind me reacted swiftly, so there was no Kaltverformung. But I warned the buyer to not take it to the Ring.

Well the tf80 has overheated too I think, which did not help ^^ Additional gearbox cooler with Do88 and here we go

A real FIVE cylinder Volvo T5 is always nice! A V40 T5 is quite similar to a Focus ST, and if you want a better front axle, an LSD, proper cooling, quicker steering and Recaro seats, just buy a Focus RS from 2009-10 and enjoy the drama and the lack of depreciation.

So much potential in this volvo, sad to see it going into limp mode :/

I am not surprised it got hot and flustered being caned around the Ring in 30c ambient temperatures and without cooling mods. The transmission is the exact same one as used by BMW in the early M135i XDrive (2.0T) before they moved to a DCT. It's pretty decent but significantly better after a RICA TCU map, who are one of the few companies to offer a TCU map for the 8 speed Aisin Warner transmission. The same transmission in a Polestar is also much better but I still think the RICA TCU has the edge as it shifts much faster and the map can be purchased independently of any ecu upgrade. Even with a standard car I would recommend the RICA TCU. Like most cars, the V40 T5 really needs some cooling upgrades (intercooler and oil cooler) if it's going to be used on track, especially during the hot summer months. Nice daily!

The platform under these cars is really good when set up right. They're Volvos but they can handle. I don't think this was making more than stock power but the engine is very tuneable - but needs at bare minimum a bigger intercooler and oil cooler before you go on track. No doubt the limp mode was temperature related and a good thing it happened because both IATs and oil temps can be dangerously high on the stock items. There's no way this car is making 340bhp, and 430nm would be low for a 340bhp 5 cylinder. I would guess that this car is stock powerwise at 260hp. I have a C30 T5 which is the predecessor to the V40 and very closely related in terms of the chassis, but with a sportier body and less electronic nannies. Manual, makes 316bhp/384lbft, on BC coilovers with pretty much everything suspension related uprated, 6 piston wilwoods up front and Mk3 RS on the rear, and fat 255 wide R888Rs. It's really good fun and will surprise a lot of people. I compete in club motorsport and usually wipe the floor with most of the tin top cars.

Nice. Setup seems more like for a daily.. lots of roll, but also plenty of compliance. Nice noise. Lovely.

Key word as the majority of the comments state: Oil cooling ! Very important, even on a stock car ! And of course good quality oil and correct spec.

THAT 5 Banger! OMG Love my volvos :)

The inline 5 cylinder sound - the sexiest thing invented by engineers....

It was definitely the year for overheating!

Air intake Temp probably got a bit high, Happens in Australia a bit and they pull timing.

Why did I find your channel just now. Your content is fire. Top notch. You are a mad man my friend. Keep up. ❤ from India.

Los volvo V40 del 2011-2012 en adelante vienen con motor 2.O turbo, pero si, tienes toda la razón el 5 cylindros de volvo en sonido es una maravilla.

Finally a "brother-in-engine" in action

Have the same car down under so love to see this mine is the 2.5 5 cylinder

Aaaaaa a Volvo t5. Love that sound. Hammering and pounding all the time. Because it looks soft and mellow it seems slow, but this car is really fast!! To bad for the inlet temp they ruin the power. A do88 intercooler would solve mostly this problem I guess

Love the blue

the lincoln navigator at 5:15 lol

There’s an awd version of this beautiful sounding 5 cylinder could be interesting to see

finally a volvo.. tho one with a slushbox. in winter i was able to outrun them with a 116HP 240 lol. they just did not get the power to the ground and the box destroyed all power control. the slushbox rely kills that engine's performance. might be the box getting hot. it need some oilcoolers. the engine have a water to oil cooler on the back of the oil pan. that's it for the engine i think.

0:18 bmw m1 on ceramic brakes and comp wheels! Need more about that!

Love the V40s, I own one myself and my parents have one too, no T5 though :(

The heat soak is real 😬😬

Though mine is only a t4 plus, I would drive like a lunatic, letting the rear slide a little bit. But I live in hong kong, can access only some twisty mountain roads. glad to see you getting the most out of the t5 at nurburgring

Was looking like a really good lap until the loss of power. Shame about the yellows. Think it was the heat again. 😥✌

Good video

I don't find this car interesting of course, but I like that you're testing normal cars.

Very nice run!

Please do a C30 T5 with a manual 🙏🏻

the white Porsche was blazing.....also a nice Volvo :^)

What a beautiful car!

Trans was hot and cutting power, just before i noticed some flaring in the shifts

I would want to see a C30 T5 tuned and with aero. havent seen a real one like that yet and would be great to see one on the track (Or build myself, but need to know so much more before I guess)

Heck yeah love the Volvo content

This is one of the many cars that I want to try. Looks really fun. Wonder how will it be for daily driving?

R5 turbo in the back ! 0:40

damn, please do a video with that Fairlady in the background at the beginning. that would be awesome! :) what a lovely car

reminds me of my mk2 rs focus, what a car that was. the cosworth of today

Keeps impressive if a standard car can make a lap with Misha behind the wheel. aren't it the brakes then there will be another problem in general. The more impressive is an I30N

Greeting from México! 🙋‍♂️

Clutch was slipping when changing gear at the redline

If it was due to water or engine oil overheat a red light should have popped up! Could have been transmission (oil) overheat?

5:18 was that a Lincoln Navigator?!

best mod would be to manuel swapping that car because the transmission is really bad in those. overall lovely car but the transmission kills all the fun imho.

Misha, you can have my Volvo. All I ask is one lap one!

The 2.5 turbo should be a lot quicker then my S40 2.4, but somehow it does not look like it is, at least not between 100 and 150 kph.

Volvo died for me, after restricting new models to 180 km/h. They clearly dont want their customers to have fun, so i dont want them to have my money.

Me Volvo ❤

You overtook a saab 9-3 at 5:30 that's what counts when you drive a volvo :)

Je geeft gewoon te veel gas jonge!😉

Curious dont you need to use the light signals when you overtake another car in germany?

Misha I will bring my S60 T5 expolice car :), I done 280k mileage but it's pulling like a train ;).

RIMAC ON NURBURGRINGGGGGG

you can say it is 5cyl by how it sounds)

There's no way this car has 344hp. This is a 5-Cyl 210hp stock. I had a V40 T5 Drive-e engine, 245hp stock, and with downpipe, ECU remap, BMC filter and gearbox remap, barely reaches 300hp.

I'm afraid that at the end of the lap, the Model lost its "T" and it's now a "5" 🙄

What was overheating? Engine Oil, gearbox oil or intake air?

Probably gearbox is to hot and power is reduced.

Dat speed? Hanging out with to much dutchies yet again

basically a ford focus :)

Also sad you had to drive the slush box and not the manual! The manual is much much better!

Why not drive more volvos? 960 6 cylinder or V70 I from 1999? Volvo 440?

Volvo, really nice cars, but the turbo ones… if you drive them hard for a while something always happens😂

My mom has got a V40 T3:)

The car has not the power it should from the beginning. Something is wrong with the engine.

big big volvo fan here, not to sure of the newer ones as im into the older brick styled sleds, but this one hes working on hes made one awesome daily driver, imagine taking that though the countryside twistys :)

It has 250 horsepower?

SAAB ON THE RING???

So are both T4 and T5 from 2013 (Ford) engines reliable or ?? Thank you for any hints.. 😊

T5 4 cil is more competitive

nobody notice the Z in the background??? 💔💔💔

nicee

Bro u need off traction control..

you really need to do something about that tired T5 engine. other than that. it was cool to see :)

Pretty sure thats < 300hp.

Brakes from a Focus mk3.🤔

For that power in my opinion is slow

It seems like its heavy and not so direct, slow on shifting and not so confidental to drive.

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Oh dear. Great driving but disappointing performance from the car

Эти моторы B5254 любят умирать от перегрева и трещин в блоке, случаев достаточно, хотя Ford st и RS старые как-то катаются. Мотор звук дает хороший, но лёгкой мощности, как с 1.8 2.0 TSI, от него не получить.

car seems to get underpowered probably because of temps. misha proceeds to try to slam it and push every gear anyway...
