Volvo S40 Windshield Replacement Cost

Debuting in 1995, the Volvo S40 quickly established itself as a reliable and compact executive car. Initially co-produced with Mitsubishi, the first-generation S40 shared its platform with the Mitsubishi Carisma, offering a unique blend of European styling and Japanese engineering. Over the years, the S40 underwent various upgrades and transformations, including a significant redesign in 2004, introducing a more sophisticated and modern aesthetic. Notably, the S40 was among the first in its class to offer a turbocharged diesel engine, attracting a diverse range of buyers interested in performance and efficiency alike.

When considering the cost of windshield replacement for the Volvo S40, several factors come into play. One of the most influential elements is the presence of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) technology. Models equipped with features such as lane departure warning, collision avoidance, and automatic emergency braking often have sensors and cameras integrated into or around the windshield, leading to increased replacement costs. This became particularly relevant with the second-generation models (2004 onwards), which were more likely to include these advanced features.

Trim levels also play a crucial role in determining windshield replacement costs. Higher trim levels typically incorporate more technology and luxury features, which can influence the complexity of the windshield design and installation. Additionally, the availability of aftermarket parts can significantly impact pricing. While aftermarket options may provide more affordable solutions, their compatibility with ADAS and overall fit can vary, sometimes making OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts the better, albeit pricier, choice.

Changes in model years also affect windshield replacement costs, as each major redesign can alter the windshield’s size, shape, and functionality. For example, the 2004 redesign not only changed the car’s appearance but also updated its structural design, which may require windshields that adhere to new specifications in terms of curvature and sensor integration. Therefore, understanding these factors is essential for Volvo S40 owners seeking the most cost-effective yet reliable windshield replacement options.

Volvo S40 Windshield Replacement Cost By Year

Not all windshields are created equal, so it makes sense that not all replacements cost the same. Depending on the vehicle and the technology built into the glass, replacement prices can vary significantly. Here’s how we break it down:

High-End Range
Some vehicles—especially newer or luxury models—are equipped with advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), like lane-keeping cameras, rain sensors, heads-up displays, and built-in heating elements. These features require original equipment manufacturer (OEM) glass and a complete ADAS recalibration after installation. Because of the specialized parts and labor involved, these replacements fall at the top end of the price range.

Mid-Range
Many modern cars come with a few standard features—such as forward collision sensors or lane departure cameras—that require basic recalibration after the windshield is replaced. These windshields typically don’t require OEM glass but do involve some extra steps beyond a simple install, which puts them in the moderate price range.

Low-End Range
Older vehicles or base models often have a simpler setup: plain laminated glass without any built-in electronics or sensors. These windshields are the most straightforward to replace, and therefore, fall into the lowest price tier.

Year Maximum Price Average Price Minimum Price
2011$390.00$360.00$320.00
2010$390.00$360.00$320.00
2009$390.00$360.00$320.00
2008$390.00$360.00$320.00
2007$360.00$360.00$360.00
2006$360.00$360.00$360.00
2005$360.00$360.00$360.00
2004$360.00$360.00$360.00

Volvo S40

Mario was a lifesaver! Someone broke into my Volvo and smashed my front window. I called around and everyone quoted me ridiculously high amounts with the earliest service date 2 weeks out at shops 9ver an hour away. Mario gave me a fair price and came to install it at my house the following day. Very professional and the window looks great!
