The field of the X-ray transient CXOM31 J004059.2+411551 (ATel #1147) was covered with XMM-Newton for 22 ks in a target of opportunity observation (TOO) starting on 2007-07-25.45 UT. About 20 days after the Chandra detection the transient was still bright. The EPIC pn position of the source is RA(J2000) 00:40:59.2, Dec(J2000) +41:15:50.5 (1 sigma position error 1.5" determined by the assumed systematic error) consistent with the position given in ATel #1147.
