Running a Volvo S40 without a thermostat is not advisable, as the thermostat plays a crucial role in regulating the engine's temperature. Without it, the engine may take longer to reach optimal operating temperature, leading to inefficient fuel combustion, increased emissions, and potential engine wear. Additionally, the vehicle may experience poor heater performance and could even overheat in certain conditions. It's best to replace a faulty thermostat rather than removing it.
