Re: Android Car Auto / Full Screen ?
Congrats on your new car! If your car has the Sensus system, then unfortunately Android Auto only lives in the bottom half of the screen and you cannot have the apps in full screen. However, Google has just announced a major update that is supposed to make full screen AA possible in any AA-compatibl...

Re: Have I made the right choice choosing the T3 8 speed auto?
I have a T3 Auto since August 2020 and I have few complaints. It's certainly not underpowered, acceleration from standstill more than enough for me, overtaking on motorways not a problem at all. I wish it were more refined and quiet though. Not a big problem. Oh and fuel consumption in city traffic ...

Re: Fuel tank level
This thread has turned into a perfect example of how misinformation spreads Fortunately, reality made its comeback towards the end
Truth: "The fuel gauge reflects the amount of fluid in the tank and not the miles it will do"

Re: Stop/start
Definitely one of the the most annoying features. It stops inappropriately eg when edging forward in a parking space etc. Volvo ought to program a longer delay before this feature initiates It does get better with practice, I can say that from experience. In the car park situation it's very easy to...

Re: Blind spots.
Donmac, with BLIS you should have absolutely no problems with any blind spots. The mirrors are good and the orange warning is something you very soon get used to as a benefit. The 360 camera is great for slow speed manoeuvring. BLIS has certainly helped on a few occasions in supermarket car parks w...

Re: A Eureka Moment on MPG...
It’s quite obvious that some of you posting in this thread ( you know who you are) have no interest in mpg figures, in fact I’d go as far as saying the subject seems to somewhat annoy you. If your only reason for posting in the thread is to criticise other people’s interests and life choices then p...

Re: Front Facing Camera
Apparently, XC40 is equipped with a front facing camera capable of capturing and saving images. Going through privacy settings in VOC app I found that when active safety data recorder is turned on, forward facing camera will capture images for 4 seconds before and after collisions. I wonder if thes...

Re: An end to dealerships
That's the rub. I've no problem with ordering on line if I have seen and test driven the car. What I really object to is a Tesla/Polestar approach where there are set prices and no discounts and no negotiation even on part exchange. I can see why Volvo want to do it - no discounts equals bigger pro...
