Re: Individual mode settings

Yes I understand - When in the individual settings and I have the Dynamic Mode set and I save the mode to my key, when I start the car the Dynamic mode is set and the display reads Dynamic though perhaps there are different software versions that show things differently.

Re: Individual mode settings

It is the way my car works. When I am in Dynamic mode the tachometer has the word Dynamic displayed. I have the 4c active suspension also so maybe that is why my car functions this way.

Re: Individual mode settings

The only difference between the Dynamic and Comfort displays will be the word Dynamic that will show up inside the tachometer when in the Dynamic mode.

I was disappointed to find that I did not have a warning triangle in my cubby hole. It must be supplied depending on specific laws for each country.(USA)

Re: Mild offroad areas to play with the XC40?

The XC40 works surprisingly well off road for what it is. The ground clearance is quite good at 8.5"'inches and even with street tires is fairly capable. I would not be too shy to take it off road as I have done with mine. Here is a video of the XC40 off road: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xB...

This Sport Key is usually found in the key fob box Volvo supplies with the car - it was located under the other Key Fob.

Re: Can anyone tell me what this is?....

That is your Sport Key - Smaller to take it jogging etc and easier to put in your pocket or on a cord around your neck etc. Will operate the car but not have the accessory buttons to lock unlock or panic etc.
