Re: Premium diesel

Hi xbimmer. Same here always I use premium deisel espesially having the price of the premium same as the standard on a weekly offers. If the cost is not significant then why not using the premium otherwise it’s good to use it once a while.

Re: XC40

Hi spiros I had previously owned a fully loaded X1 1.5 for almost 3 years and replaced it with the xc40 D4 FE due to the ride being crashy. There is a big difference between both especially the ride quality. I have 20 tyres compared to 18s that I had on the x1 and the xc40 rides more comfortable and...

Re: Polestar Upgrade

I would defiantly recommend the upgrade. Not sure the effect on the T5, however for the D4 upgrade I can notice a big change in acceleration and midrange. Maybe the numbers are not the best to show that but I for sure felt the difference, especially the gearbox gear changes.

Re: Data Sim Card v Phone Tethering

Defiantly data SIM card is much more convenient. On iPhones you have to always remember to go to personal hotspot in order for Sensus to connect to the internet apart from battery drainage. Unfortunately I have no other choice at the moment since my modem is not working anymore due to the latest sof...

Re: Wheels 19 or 20 inch

What size wheels would you recommend for a r design in terms of comfort and road noise? I like a quiet comfortable ride. I live in the uk which let’s face it don’t have the best roads. Would be interested in anyone’s opinion. I got the 20s and I’m happy with my choice. They are a bit wider (245) vs...

Re: Polestar

Thanks PP67, I will do as soon as it’s fitted a week on Monday. I’ll also give my review when I’ve driven with it for a few days 😀 The dealer who will do the polestar upgrade will fill the application for the certificate and the polestar tag and will be either delivered to your address or the deale...

Re: Mysterious knocking/rattle

Maybe I have the same problem but a deep knocking sound coming from the back as soon as I press the brakes at very low speed. As if something was rolling in the boot. But obviously I have nothing there. I have taken my car for the first service and my dealer said there is nothing wrong. The sound do...

Re: Standard XC 40 Stereo

I have the HK as well. Not the best system I would say and for sure it could be much better. I have heard the Bower and Wilkens on the XC60 and there is no comparison. Believe if music is very important for you, then you should go with the upgraded HK. If you prefer to add other options with the mon...

Re: SIM Card for onboard modem

Got a reply from Volvo support in Sweden and apparently they know about the problem and they advise to use WiFi/Bluetooth internet connection for the moment. My carrier is Vodafone if any of that matters :|
