Re: T4 / T5 geartronic problem

Yes the stop is uncomfortable and I find a slight lag in the gears. Its like turbo lag when changing up. Unfortunately I am at the end of my rope with this car and will be going back to Audi as I have had 12 years fault free motoring with them. I have had 2 breakdowns in the XC40.

Re: Gearbox Fault

Hi Buzbox. I have logged it with the Volvo dealer who reckons its a software glitch. It just showed it was sitting in 6th with a + sign and a tortoise. Just a bit unnerving when driving it. We will see what happens. Thanks

After turning it off for a minute it started and drove fine. Any ideas on what this could be ? Getting worried every ...

Re: B4 Service Costs

Hi. I just had my first service which I had done at a local garage who reset computer and used only Volvo CE parts for £210. You are under no obligation to get it serviced by a Volvo dealer as they rip you off at every turn. As long as you have CE parts fitted you dont need to pay a kings ransom for...
