Re: Stupid Sat Nav
If only Volvo had included a physical rotary switch to adjust the zoom level, rather than relying on the two-fingered pinch trick, which invariably needs a few attempts to get the desired level of map detail, for me anyway. Come to think of it, it would have been good if Volvo had adopted the VW Gro...

Re: Market Research
It would be great if you referred them to this forum during your session.......I have to say it’s the most rational and useful one I’ve ever joined, and refreshingly (almost!) free from “fake news”.#

Once I made contact with the new salesman however, he pushed the £350 ...

Re: City safe - how often?
My City Safe warning light has triggered twice in 2,000 miles, each time when approaching.a vehicle parked in a lay-by. Both times the road was curving away from the lay-by, so presumably the XC40 thought it was heading direct for the parked car. In neither instance was automatic brake actuation als...

Re: Sensus to mobile data connection
What kind of phone are you trying to connect? With an iPhone (I don't know about Android), you'll need to manually re-establish the connection each time. Although I've got loads of data on my phone, it's for that reason I plan to get a cheap SIM for the car as well - too much hassle hot-spotting th...

Re: Eco Drive dial - Does anyone understand it?
No worries early adopter - the manual isn't much help in answering your questions anyway! As far as I can make out, the gauge is a glorified vacuum gauge (remember them?) as it does seem to vary with throttle opening. However, there are a few added gizmos which seem to be of limited value: The littl...
