Infotainment crashing/going blank

Has anyone else had their infotainment system go blank? In the middle of a phonecall and heard a buzzing for about 2 minutes (not a speaker like buzz, more electrical) and then the screen went blank and i could no longer hear the caller. System resumed less than 30 seconds later so I redialled , con...

Re: MPG readings in center console and drivers display different?

I’ve reset all three since I bought the car (or at least two; one resets itself) and all three are still different. Resets make no difference and I too have been wondering why the discrepancy. I reset the one in the infotainment panel and the one TM and by the end if my 14 mile journey they were dif...

Re: First Year Service

I had the first service done at a Volvo dealer a few days ago. I would definitely recommend going to a Volvo dealer to get this service as the software update has really improved the stop/start system and the car is running much smoother. The 360 camera pictures are also clearer with new wheel dire...

Re: Question re cruise control & ACC

The cruise control option is either normal cruise or adaptive cruise and this can be configured in the settings menu on the centre screen (swipe from right to left to find the setting) Hope this helps? This was key ! Thanks so much for this. I hadn’t got that option highlighted. Now I’ve selected i...

Re: Question re cruise control & ACC

Thanks. That’s a bit weird though. As far as I’m aware I have intellisafe pro as I have a First Edition. If I press the left arrow it scrolls between pilot assist and speed limiter. It doesn’t seem to give me the option of bog standard cruise control. I don’t like pilot assist either but I can have ...

Question re cruise control & ACC

I didn’t get a handover with my car and I’m having issues with my cruise control. I have adaptive cruise control on my car and from the manual it appears I can turn this option off and just go with CC if I so wish . I’ve followed the instructions but I’m damned if I can get the ACC to switch off and...

Re: MPG - Again :-)

Just did a trip of 118 miles mostly motorway in my d4 and managed to achieve 47 mpg in eco mode (except with high steering force and no eco mode for air con) . Pleased with that. Question for you experts- will a 15 mile journey once a week or 30 mile journey once a fortnight be enough to stop the dp...

Re: MY20 new colours

I end up buying red cars each time I buy a Volvo as there's nothing that really grabs me. The R Design blue V40 (rebel blue) from a few years ago was fantastic and I would have had that if it was available. Quite like the Amazon blue but that wasn't available in my model.

Re: Interior fan and cooling system

Thanks Silvermoose - it was on eco on Individual mode. Didn't spot that. The problem I've had is that I bought this car at 6 months old and never got a handover as they delivered. That's been really hard with such a high tech car. I think I'll have to revisit the settings once again if everyone else...

Re: Interior fan and cooling system

Hmm...I'm not actually sure if I'm using the eco air settings ; I'll check. Thanks for the tip.
