Re: XC40 T3 Auto Tremble

I am sorry i mean the Auto Start/Stop function that turns off engine. I have that disabled Can you set the drivers' display to show real time consumption instead of the default trip mpg, if you haven't already? Then look if the tremble coincides with the consumption going down from 0.4 to 0.3 and f...

Re: Excess condensation?

I wouldn't worry too much if i were you. I had the same exact happen with my "old" Mazda 3 2016. Air-con and everything has been fine when driving it daily, but since the Volvo came the Mazda sat in the lot, sometimes for 4-5 days in a row. I was also surprised to see excess condensation o...

Re: Can you delete Navigation Maps?

I'm sure this is not the answer you were hoping for, and i got the same issue with the map updates but i grew to ignore them. Went to the 3mths service today and raised the issue, was told the maps "are part of the car" and they can not be removed. Asked if factory reset would remove them,...

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

Changing the intermittent wiper setting on the RH stalk appears to change the sensitivity of the automatic wipers. Failing that am I imagiining this? That's exactly what that is for. However the symbol on it is counter-intuitive. More rain drops (3) means it'll wipe faster (higher intensity) While ...

Re: Instantaneous fuel consumption

You need to go to the same menu (steering wheel right-side button that you use to call, navigate etc) The options are grouped, if i remember well TA was in the same group with real time fuel consumption. Might be wrong though, maybe it's lower. Can't check ATM, but it's there, i've set it up a while...

Re: New T4 RDesign Auto Fwd fuel range

I also have a T4 AWD and i average about 22mpg in London. Crazy traffic both morning and evening, and takes about 50-60 mins for an 11 miles trip, so i think it's pretty fair. Especially as some areas are particularly hilly. On M25/motorway/longer drivers i averaged 32mpg in Comfort. It surely can d...

Re: Wireless Carplay Solved

What i'm trying to say is that IF the phone communicates over wifi to the carplay dongle, than the 4g (3g for the unlucky) won't work. As the phone can't communicate across two channels at the same time. it's the same with my dashcam, if i connect to it over wifi i either need to wait 10 mins for t...

Re: Dashcam Connector

I have the same dashcam, sadly it was installed by the seller so i haven't checked if fuse or OBD. However the magic pro is located on the side panel that's visible when you open the passenger door, where the airbag deactivation knob is located. That makes me feel the cables are routed towards the f...

Re: Wireless Carplay Solved

Yes as you’ve discovered, Bluetooth is only used for the initial connection to tell the iPhone the WiFi details. Bluetooth immediately disconnects and CarPlay is initiated over WiFi. So, that means we can't use the phone's internet then, right? I feel for many this will be a massive dealbreaker, i ...
