Re: Volvo Sensus update with Google

No official announcement and I'm talking about a (not possible) software upgrade to the current model.

Re: Volvo Sensus update with Google

No retrofit for our cars (due to hardware requirements). The new Google infused software will be exclusive to new vehicles when made available by Volvo.

Re: Google Earth

Android embedded version (like on TVs) is not that bad. It all depends on the hardware that runs it and the talent of the ingeneers in charge of the integration.

Re: Has anyone successfully found the "Invitation" button on Volvo on Call app?

I have the option under Car (tab) > car sharing (you have to activate it first) > invite more friends.

Re: T3 performance issues

No complain here. I've driven my T3 more than 2000km and the engine is powerful (for a 156hp 3 pots) and quiet.
There might be something wrong with yours.

Re: Bonnet clips not engaging

I had a similar issue when I collected the car the bonnet was slightly misaligned on one side. Dealer fixed it really easily. There are 2 plastic/ruber "screws" under the bonnet, one on each side. You can turn them to adjust the height and allow the bonnet to fit properly. I hope it can he...

Re: MPG - Again :-)

Quick feedback on my T3, almost 550 miles and the average MPG is 36,7. It's better than what I expected :)
