Re: DAB Radio sound reduction when indicating

I haven’t had any noticeable volume change on the infotainment (from any source) when indicators are active. I can’t think of any reason why it would do that. I can only remember it changing when satnav is giving an instruction.

Re: Genuine Volvo GAP insurance + other stuff

As ianrelliot says above, most of what you're looking for is in the thread he's linked. My gap through directgap.co.uk was £289 for 4 years. Speak with your Volvo dealer and try and get them to get their price down. I managed to get VW dealer to price match when we brought my wife's car recently. As...

Re: Boot opening daft question

The significant thing I've found is stepping away from the car after the kick. If you just stand there, it won't open (to avoid making you in the chin). Kick, step back, opens with a beep. As for closing, I've never tried kick to close. But, after using the traditional button to unlock and then moto...
