Hi guys looking for some advice turning my xc40 inscription t3 on by volvo mobile app, the car comes on but the rear/front heated windows don't come on i have (i tnink) all set up correctly yet when I turn ignition on they come on including seat heat, does anyone have any ideas, this is meant to be one of the benefits of the car especially when snow is upon us, thanks

I have been trying this for some time. The garage told me only the engine and air con comes on with the remote start but when you get in the car and press start the other functions (heated seat etc) come on.
If you find a way, I will be interested to hear.

you can get heated seats and steering wheel to start as well using remote start by setting up under Climate on the in-car display.

one particular reason that springs to mind is that the car had a wrong exterior temperature reading when you remotely started it; it needs to be 10 degrees (Celsius) or lower, but sometimes if it's 10 it won't work.
