Re: Auto Volume Increase/Decrease
I have the base audio system, and if it does have volume compensation, then it's really weak, almost unnoticeable.

Re: Weird dash button hole
As said above, it's the cabin temperature sensor.

Re: Thoughts most welcome, potential new owner...
I have a T5 momentum, which I believe should have the same engine and transmission setup by default unless you go for P*? It's quick, more than enough for average driving on or off highway, passing cars, etc. But I would say it's not as sporty/quick as an S3 (never drove an A35), I think the fact th...

Re: Boot opening daft question
Not sure how well this system works on the Volvo but on my Mercedes it was rubbish, gave up on it after a few days and resorted to using the button to open and close. Funny enough my mercedes is the one that's extremely consistent, whereas my XC40 is a bit on and off... maybe I'm kicking it wrong...

Re: XC40 or Jaguar E Pace torn between the two. Help.
I had an E-Pace as a loaner car for a day back when I had a land rover, and I think overall I prefer the XC40 more. E-Pace felt a little bit more sporty, there are some interior design that I really like (especially the shifter), but I think XC40 has better infotainment setup, larger/more useful int...

Re: Double-tap gearshift
5 months of driving later, I got used to it in most circumstances. It does get annoying when doing 3-point turns as pointed out previously, or in any other situation where you need to switch between R and D multiple times. I wish they use the BMW system where N is like a half-way detent that you can...

Re: XC-40 performance in heavy snow
Here are my observations when running off road mode: - Speed limited to 40km/hr - Transmission stays in lower gears - Much slower throttle response I think in theory that makes off road mode quite good for snow because it has more engine breaking due to lower gears, and the slower throttle response ...

Re: Rear wiper
Haven't had it happen to me yet on the XC40. But something similar did happen on my previous Land Rover Discovery Sport. Whenever there was light rain the rear wiper could get stuck at any position in intermittent wiping mode. It was fine in continuous mode OR when the rain gets heavy. The dealer co...

Re: Wireless Charging with Phone Case
I have a silicone case on my iphone X and it charges fine with it on. Its not one of the small/thin ones, its a fair thickness. Does your phone charge with case on when on a normal wireless charger? Yes it charges fine on the Pixel Stand with the case on (as advertised). And after some fidgeting ar...

Wireless Charging with Phone Case
Finally got my XC40 after a 5 months wait, everything's been mostly good so far (radio app failed to boot on one occasion). I recently also got a Pixel 3 with google's case, which is said to work with wireless charging. When I placed it on the charging pad on the XC40, nothing... No wireless chargin...
