Anyone noticed indicators speed fluctuating when slowing down ? - doesn't happen every time.

Is it the actual speed of the lights or the speed of the indicator sound. This is quite a common fault with the XC60, where the sound doesn’t match the actual flashing of the lights.

With hindsight it may be just the sound - I’ll check.
Thanks

I have also noticed that the indicator noise sometimes jumps or seems to skip. I've not checked if the actual indicator flash remains consistent.

From all the comments on the XC60 it’s something you live with. Mine does it occasionally and I’ve just got used to it, the actual flashing lights are not affected

I've noticed the sound frequency changes occasionally however indicator speed remains the same.
Its a generated noise, not like older cars with an audible flasher unit

Thanks - very interesting.
Assume it doesn't bother you and you haven't told dealer?
