Re: Remote start activates alarm

My temporary fix is to deactivate the interior alarm sensor the night before. It works but a) I have to remember to do this and b) it makes the car less secure. I have booked my car in for 3 month check and have referred the issue to the dealer. I shall let you all know if the problem is resolved.. ...

Polestar Certification

Just wondering whether or not those that have been Polestarred have registered with Polestar?
It is important that you do, as it is the only evidence that you will have when it comes to selling on your vehicle.
I have just received my certificate.
Also, are you happy with Polestar?

Re: Remote start activates alarm

Having turned off internal sensitivity of the alarm, last night, this morning hey presto no spurious alarm! I am trying again tonight in case it was a fluke.

Re: Remote start activates alarm

I only use one key and one set of settings. I referred this to Volvo and they had not heard of the problem. They suggested that this be referred to the dealer. If Volvo had not heard of the problem, I wonder what chance the dealer has in fixing it? Tonight, I reduced the internal alarm sensitivity. ...

Re: Keyless Touch sensitive surfaces and Cleaning

I do similar and no problems. This is what I also had to do in my previous Audi.

Remote start activates alarm

I eventually took delivery 26 October. I must say that I really love the car. It has surpassed all expectations. Just one nagging problem is that when using remote start, the alarm activates itself. This happened on first attempt and then it seemed to be ok. This morning, however, the neighbourhood ...

Re: Delivery Date

Just heard from dealer and there appears to be “a few days delay” due to availability of parts. Not bothered after such a long wait, but cannot wait now :roll: I have just done a round trip to Kent of 1200 miles. Would you believe, I still have not seen one XC40 on the road. I now need to source a d...
