Re: Boot dog cage



Thinking about this one for mine, I reckon this should fit, haven't mocked up a template with the dimensions yet though.

Re: Volvo - Road Hawk Dashcam

I have a garmin 55 in the top left, if you are very careful you can keep it clear of the sun visor but there is only a few mm in it! It's out of the wipe zone unfortunately but the picture is still pretty good and the cable reaches the 12v socket in the boot.

Re: VOC down??

Seems to be something up with it, the current location is correct, but todays trips aren't logged.

Re: Tow Bar Mounted Bike Rack - Advice / help on one that works

I fitted the bc3 and it seems fine, can't get it to budge once it's on.. roofbox are pretty good with returns so I'm sure you will find something that works. Wonder if they changed the mounting system?

Re: Tow Bar Mounted Bike Rack - Advice / help on one that works

Not got round to trying my buzz bc3 rack on the xc40 yet, but never had any issues with it on my previous jeep. Do you have the factory towbar on yours?

Re: Opinions on the T3 geartronic

I've had mine a couple of weeks now and it's a lot better than I was expecting. I test drove a diesel D4 Rdesign, and previous cars have been diesel for some time. The gearbox is smooth and pulls away as quick as some other competitors dual clutch boxes. The amount of torque the T3 produces is prett...
