Re: Driving journal, Volvo app
Not done any reset and its the odometer reading 15100 on the app. According to the in car display my average mpg is 46.7 since last reset (which I think was around 2000 miles). Just returned from a long run to Cornwall and it was showing 53mpg which is pretty decent.

Re: Driving journal, Volvo app
My app is now recording (at 15100 miles) that I have an average of 5.9mpg and 60mph. Suspect an error somewhere!

Re: What have you just found out about your XC40.
similar happened to me visiting a NT property - got an alert to say the alarm was going . Rushed out to check - the dashcam had fallen off the screen and set off the alarm. Now I always remove the dashcam when parked!

Re: What have you just found out about your XC40.
When I first had my XC40 in Sept 2018 we went on the IoW ferry. As the car was new I didn't know how to turn off the car alarm (easy when I found out) - but clearly most other drivers didn't know how to turn theirs off either!

Re: Auto Stop/start with Auto Hold activated
I never use speed limiter so that's not my issue.

Re: Auto Stop/start with Auto Hold activated
I had this problem for around 18 months. At recent service, having pointed out the problem again, was told battery needs to be above 70% for stop start to activate. I had just done 500 miles the previous week so the battery was either full or faulty. Lo and behold on picking up the car the stop star...

Re: Service plan - you’re mad if you don’t have it
Got my 5y service plan "free" as part of the deal when I bought the car. Always been a bit wary though as to whether a proper service is carried out as clearly the garage aren't making money on it.

sensus navigation error?
Driving back home today Mildred (the name given to the voice on our satnav) told us the road near where we live was closed due to a landslide. We took a 20 mile diversion at her suggestion. No sign of any landslide and nothing on any local news or travel bulletin. Very odd.

Re: VOC aka Volvo Cars App
Volvo have stopped offering the 2y renewal - now it's 1y or nothing and consequently more expensive!

Re: Stop Start function and trickle charging
My wife's 2012 A class stop/start works perfectly all the time and the car does even less mileage than mine (under 2000 miles in the last year compared to my 4000). My stop start hasn't worked for over 6 months despite recently having done a 200 mile run. The Volvo XC40 stop start definitely has pro...
