Re: Creaking noise when pulling away and stopping

I am not sure if it is the same issue I had.
But mine had a terrible creaking noise from the brakes.
Volvo replaced all brake pads to comfort pads...result 95% of the noise was gone.
Is a known Volvo issue.
Ps: the pads were replaced under warranty.

It was replaced during maintenance. So nothing on the invoice. I think it was a refurbished one.

Re: Creaking sound -- I think that's A/C

I had it replaced as the Volvo guys said it would cost me an arm and a leg if not replaced during warranty.

It is a known issue.
They replaced mine ,so I think so.....
As after a few weeks the creaking came back!
So not sure if they only greased the valves or replaced the unit with a refurbished one...and not with a new one.

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

I have automatic driver seat heating set up in settings, when I turn on the engine, my seat heating also turns on. Today, on a warm spring day, automatic seat heating didn't turn on, meaning it's correlated with outside temperature measurement. Does anyone know what's the temperature threshold for ...

Re: Volvo On Call App Stopped Working

I have the same problem. VOC won't start.
Did update and a reboot but did not work either.
Seems a server-Volvo problem.

Re: Slight Creak/Rattle

Yesterday they replaced the Hvac-unit under the dash.
All rattles and creaks are gone.

Took them less then a day to replace .
They also told me that I was lucky because the unit was due to fail soon...costs a few 1000€ if it would have been out of warranty !
