Two Years Today
Just realised that it is exactly 2 years since my then new Inscription was first posted here. A bit grubbier and now parked in a different drive but not a lot else has happened or changed. Still like the Pine Grey and pleased that they discontinued it has become a less common colour on the roads. My...

Re: VOC Test
There was a post where someone was in a bad crash (the car did an amazing job protecting them) and it auto dialled the emergency services for them. It certainly does work - you just seem to have had bad luck getting the Friday afternoon car after a liquid lunch. I think that was this post:- https:/...

Re: AC - on or off
Had cars with auto AC for at least 20 years. Never turned AC off, never had a problem. Had my previous Volvo for 8 years with no AC problems.

Re: Volvo On Call pairing with car
Don't know where in the world you are but you can phone them, try :-

Can't say that they were very helpful, but maybe I just spoke to somebody who was useless!

The result is condensation on the inside. As I've always kept my cars in garages over the years I had just a...

Re: Stop / Start - Software Upgrade
From what I can remember this update was not made available here in Europe (I think that Volvo cited emissions regulations), it is available in USA. I for one would like to see this being made available as I hate Stop-Start with a vengeance! I switch it off using an Individual drive more which I sel...

Re: VOC app
Hadn't noticed that before. Mine shows a Pine Grey Inscription. The colour is a bit out though as it hasn't been washed since its last service back in May!

Re: Speeding summons
I've been twice much to my embarassment! Both occasions were in new Volvos, first time in my V60 shortly after purchase the second time was last year not that long after getting my XC40. Both times I was caught out in a similar manner to you,and I don't think of myself as a 'boy racer'! The two cour...
