How do you start the ignition of a Volvo S40? The key looks like plastic. [shy]

My Volvo S40's battery seems fine. Why does the electrical system show a fault, and it starts smoking as soon as I start it? We've checked but can't find what's wrong.

How can I get a new key for my Volvo S40 when I only have one key left? Any advice from the experts?

Can the S40 be set to fold the mirrors when locked? How do you set it up?

It seems like the car key is out of battery, and the car won't start.

Not sure why, but 1. Why do Volvo and Jaguar Land Rover car keys look so similar? [grin] 2. Why do Volvo and Jaguar Land Rover have the same folding method for side mirrors? [facepalm]

How do you use the key to open the windows on the 2022 Kamiq? Thanks.

Hi everyone, can someone tell me how to set up the automatic door lock for a 2010 Volvo S40? Thanks!

Is it a problem with the ignition switch if the Volvo S40 key is turned to the second position, but there's no power and it reports an engine anti-theft system fault? I changed the ignition switch, and now it's sometimes good and sometimes bad. Sometimes the dashboard lights up, sometimes it doesn't, and sometimes it even starts automatically.

If you leave the key in the ignition for too long without starting the car, it won't start. If the key is in the ignition for more than half a minute without turning the engine on, the key becomes stuck and you have to turn off the power and try starting the car again.
