Re: April software update

Oooohhh... I like the Polestar showing in dynamic mode. I’ll have to see if my dealer will do the update outside of a service as I’ve got 8 months to wait for that?? If Polestar being displayed in dynamic mode is really a thing then I can't wait for my car to get the update! Has the drive mode sele...

Re: Add Interior Lighting

Hi, I have ambient lighting in my Inscription Pro. The software allows you to select different ambient colours - yellow, white, blue, green, purple. The light themselves are quite tiny little LEDs - two either side in the rear cabin at the top - where the handle/coat hook would be, and one at the m...

Re: 3 month service/check up

When my FE was in for the 3 month service check I informed the Volvo Technician that the Pilot Assist did not keep the car relatively central in lane. If allowed the car can drift both left and right in lane, Pilot Assist correction only coming into effect when the car is practically on the lane li...

Re: "Request an appointment"using in-car status app? (also includes Volvo ID/My car webpage error)

Has anyone managed to book an appointment with dealer using the option in the car? I've checked that I have the volvo ID set up on the app on phone as well as in the car App, I've checked I have the dealer set up when I log into my volvo account online. But I still get a 'no dealers' warning messag...

Re: Apple Car Play via Bluetooth

I'm afraid wireless CarPlay doesn't quite work that way as it uses WiFi to connect to the head unit, Bluetooth simply initiates the connection. In any case it's impossible to get wireless CarPlay or Android Auto to work with the car at present unless Volvo somehow release a software update for the h...

Re: Satnav & Speed Limits

Well we're now several updates later - version 1253 as I write this and yet we STILL have the same issue and it's getting worse with each update. What was already an annoying problem in the first place is just downright infuriating now and it's even 'bonging' to tell me about 'new' speed limits on r...

Re: Windscreen chips

I haven't had chips or cracks to the severity that some have on here but what I have noticed is that the outer glass must be rather soft as I've picked up two tiny chips on my windscreen in 8 months already. It is only the outer glass and I would describe both chips as more like very shallow scratch...

Re: Harman Kardon stereo?

Does anyone notice that the sound really dips when the engine cuts out with the stop/start? It’s like the battery can’t power the woofer without the engine on. Yes I noticed that and presumably because the woofer requires so much power as you say. It has become somewhat less noticeable since the Se...
