Re: Considering XC40

All the (button) icons are movable so you can place the camera icon where you want & give it some 'clear air' (I also leave a big clear space so I can swipe back without accidentally switching anything - though you can always just hit the home button to return). I didn't realise that. I should ...

Re: Automatic gearbox very shocky

I don't have any issue with the auto box (D4). I'm thinking you mean jerky/jumpy feeling. I don't believe mine has ever done that, I'm on 1yr and 16,000 miles.

Re: Considering XC40

Do you mean the 360 camera? It doesn't come on by default for forwards, where the beepers do. So you'd have to enable it by making two selections on the giant screen. Or, if you hit reverse (it comes up) then forward - it'll stay on until you're going quick enough for it to turn off again

Re: Rain sensing wipers

HI Wedgie I've tried adjusting them on the stalk and it seems to make little difference when they decide to go manic. They start off ok but after a short while they get faster and faster even if the rain has stopped Wonder if it's a recent software thing as I got mine back from the dealer on Monday...

Re: Sensus screen

I've had the screen of death a few times in the year of owning. Restarted on it's own then seemed fine. Haven't been able to work out what makes it happen.

Re: Volvo PCP - Service Plan (dealer didn't set up - Fuming!)

Poor service again. If you have the same weird noise as me from the roof (hard to explain but sounds like some air is trapped) then there is not a chance this is how they are. I can certainly say I'll never spec a pano roof now but I believe this is a fault, not standard. It's an odd noise and load...

Re: Volvo PCP - Service Plan (dealer didn't set up - Fuming!)

Managed to get the car back yesterday, but they hadn't addressed the issues I listed due to the delays with the part/software, so after a long debate it's now booked in again in a couple of weeks for them to look again at the sunroof and pilot assist. They attempted to tell me that the sunroof is ju...

Re: Volvo PCP - Service Plan (dealer didn't set up - Fuming!)

I did get a V40 from them late yesterday afternoon - so at least managed to get my bike in the back of it. Now waiting to see if the part arrives and I can get mine back today. No idea if they've addressed any of my other items i.e roof noise when wet/raining, pilot assist to far left etc There is ...

Re: Cycle Carriers

The one I linked above folds and the light cluster/black plastic for wheels to sit in slide in. It does just fit in the back of the XC40 then. Hi, The link doesn't work for me - can you specify which model it is? thanks, Greg Ours is discontinued: Whispbar 2 bike tow bar carrier no. WBT21 Seems it'...
