Re: Broken Tailgate Handle
Had the same problem after one year but it was covered under warranty. Looks like a faulty design in the plastic piece not being adequately reinforced where the screws attach. Not sure if the replacement part will do the same in a year or so, or if it has been strengthened somehow.

Apple Car Play via Bluetooth
Can anyone tell me why in a world that is wirelessly connected for almost everything these days, that you need to hardwire your iPhone via USB to get Apple Car Play to work? There are a number of 3rd party Apple Car Play solutions on the market that seem to work either wired or wireless. Has anyone ...

Skid Plate Kit
Anybody get any pricing from Volvo for the aftermarket Skid Plate Kit including Dual Exhausts? I reached out to my dealer in Budapest and the pricing shocked me at 2400 EUR plus installation. Just wondering what kind of pricing others might be seeing around Europe. XC40 Skid Plate Kit The front styl...

Re: First to break their new XC40
As bad as this could have been, after taking the car to my local Volvo service here in Budapest, they discovered that ONLY the support bracket was damaged. No damage or misalignment of the rear suspension or anything else. Extremely lucky as it could have been far worse. The really great news was th...

Re: Stupid Sat Nav
Wait until you decide to head to the continent. The bloody think insists on inputting special characters (e.g. those with accent marks) or it is simply incapable of finding a destination. Proved extremely frustrating until I figured it out but drives me absolutely nuts here in Hungary. My old jeep h...

First to break their new XC40
Not sure if I am the first but hurts just the same. Managed to hit a big metal piece of road debris that fell of a truck while on the A3 bypassing Zagreb. As we came around a corner at 130km, I saw the thing right in the middle of our lane with nowhere to go to avoid it. I thought I could straddle i...

Re: Fuel Figures
Just finished an 1150km trip with combined city and highway driving with a split of roughly 70% highway and 30% city driving. Overall mileage came to 8.4L/100 or 33.6mpg UK or 28.0mpg US. Quite happy with the end result as pure highway mileage was below 8.0L/100.

Cup Holder Insert
Anybody know if Volvo offers an insert for the cup holder in the center console? I have checked Volvo's site but cannot seem to find anything but just wondered if anyone else has found a solution either thru Volvo or some 3rd party provider. Unfortunately, the factory version seems to be designed fo...

XC-40 Modifications
Anyone modified their XC40 in any way (e.g. wheels, paint, striping, etc.)? If so, how about posting pictures of what you have done to make your factory delivered XC40 your own through aftermarket mods. It could be fun to see how everyone is personalizing their new ride.

Re: Sunroof Bulge
I will keep you guys posted on what the rep says once I get a reply. In any case, I definitely am getting wind noise at that part of the sunroof on both the passenger and driver side. The only good thing is that there is no water leakage but that could be do to the fact that the internal drains are ...
