Re: Can't edit Driver Profile 2

I think that profile 2 is reserved solely for the orange care key. I’m sure that I read it in the manual but for the life of me I can’t find it now. Also, on the point of keys, I believe that Volvo have now relented and are delivering cars with two black keys. So those, in any, who paid full price f...

Re: What have you just found out about your XC40.

A handy tip for electric seats for those who don’t know.
We all know that, with the door closed that you have to keep the seat setting button pressed until it reaches the setting but with the door open, it’s just a single press. 👍

Re: Rain Sensing Wipers - Something Wrong?

I’m finding the same. With rain sense activated, they either don’t work at all or go hell for leather. It’s really annoying. It’s one of the things mine’s waiting to go back in for. This and the poor speed sign recognition is driving me nuts. Whenever I pass a school, the system bongs at me for mile...

Re: Remote Start

Very interesting to see. Thank you for posting @deleteduser3277. I’ve had my XC40 in November and have been using remote start quite a lot. I’m finding it invaluable with the weather we’re having right now. I don’t have the heated steering wheel but do have the heated screen and seats and have both ...

Re: Heated Windscreen Unavailable

@Deputy, does yours not start on occasion if using the app? The only reason I can think for that being an issue is connection. I have had this but I’m in North Wales and we don’t even have reliable 3G here, let alone 4G. The manual states that it’s there to warm/cool the cabin so it should start to ...

Re: Inscription Pro seats MY21

Hi both. I’d definitely advise getting them back into the dealership. When mine goes in, if restrictions allow, I want a technician at the car so I can show him/her the issue and see if they agree. They must do as it’s as plain as the nose on my face. Also I did read, maybe here but definitely on ot...

Re: seat quality

@hamishxc40. Hi there. I was due to take mine back in for this as, if you press lightly on the seat pad, you can feel the solid plate underneath with practically no force at all. However, the appointment was postponed. I will still take it in at the earliest opportunity but I know what the answer wi...

Re: Heated Windscreen Unavailable

I've not had this myself but have read of some posters stating that their main display takes some time to load up. It may be the case that, as the systems are linked, you may need to allow the main screen to fully load before attempting press the button. Alternatively, you can set the heated screen ...

Re: Boot liner weight capacity

This is something I’ve thought previously and as already said, you’re wise to question it. The advice already given are ideas I’ve also considered but would probably have plumbed for supporting the cover as you mention. If the item was small but heavy, I’d probably lower the back seats and place the...

Re: What have you just found out about your XC40.

@72 Dudes. Max D’Frost is correct but I’d realised my mistake and changed it within minutes. Max must have seen my post immediately after I’d posted and started a reply but posted after I’d corrected as there was no reply from Max once I’d sorted it. Apologies for any confusion 👍👍 Max, great name bt...
