Hi,
I've got probably an easy question that i can't figure out from the menu system.

In my current car which is a Golf, when i get in a set the temperature to 18c (on auto) the system will work as hard as it can to get it down to 18c and then start to throttle back the fan speed.

In the XC40, even though it's set to auto, there are i think 4 or 5 different auto fan speeds. is there a way to perform the same as my Golf? It seems that the Volvo just stays at the same speed despite the internal temperature.

Thanks

@squirrelgt did you figure this out as it bugs me too, especially now in near zero temps!

Driven today in my XC40. Outside 5 degrees, inside set at 23 degrees. Climate set to Auto. Fan comes on high and heats car, fan decreases when 23 is achieved. As expected.
