Re: Tyre pressure status in Volvo App

I’ll try a recalibration. I know the tyres are good and at correct pressures…

Re: Early or Late 2023 XC40 Mild Hybrid Differences?

I know from bitter experience that even if BLIS is included in the spec and you order the car on that basis there is no guarantee that Volvo will deliver the car with BLIS fitted. If it’s a deal breaker for you be prepared to accept that you may have to reject the car. I ordered a B4 AWD and BLIS, 3...

Re: Thoughts on the B4

My local dealer is trying really hard to get me to trade in my XC40 for a new one. I’m not sure I want another XC40 so I’m looking online for information on the latest B4 model to see if I can sort out the pros & cons of upgrading. My first idea was to download the latest manual for the B4 from ...

Re: Volvo App

The VOC plan does not renew with a dealer service, only the breakdown & recovery services renew for free with each service. VOC is free for first 3yrs from new, then renews for a fee every 2 years.
That’s how it’s worked for me anyway…

Re: Towing Question...D3 or D4?

If you are worried about fuel economy then I’d suggest you look for something other than an XC40. It’s a big heavy brick that guzzles fuel. As an example my XC40 D4 AWD averages about 36mpg on a mix of rural/urban roads and about 48mpg on a steady motorway run. Never towed a satan’s chariot so can’t...

Re: Start Stop Battery Replacement

OK thanks. Never thought of doing that. I thought mine may have been different to yours and that you had a separate front panel. I haven't replaced my battery but it was good to get at it and check the voltage, which was 10.6v. That probably explains why I keep getting the error. I used a CTEK char...

Re: Spotify Podcasts on Sensus

GODLY! Really?
The HK in the XC40 is at best average IMHO.
I have always used a usb stick with high quality flac sound format. Compared with the Canton sound system in my previous car the HK is very very disappointing…
