My 2020 D3 doesn't have front parking sensors.
Does anyone know if these can be retro fitted?

Thanks

Hi,

I recently bought an XC40 (am new here!), and it didn’t have front sensors fitted, it only had the rear sensors. I spoke with Volvo and had the rear camera retrofitted, but they told me that it’s not possible to have the front sensors retrofitted.

Thanks

Can I ask how much it cost for the rear parking camera as I'm looking to get that retrofitted too.

From memory it was £695. I think dealers sometimes do deals on the price, but there weren’t any discounts available when I did it.

More details are here:

That link also shows the installation instructions - routing the wires through looks painful.

I’m also taking the car back in on Monday as they didn’t reattach the external boot opening button panel properly and it’s a bit loose and rattles around. An easy fix, but annoying that it wasn’t done correctly in the first place. If you have it done make sure you check that before you leave!

Sorry - made a mistake in the post above. That link shows the price.

This link shows the installation instructions:

Seems to say the retrofit isn’t available for pure electric vehicles (in case that’s relevant to you). Mine was the B5 so it was possible to have it done.

Hi

Recently (March) took delivery of an XC40. Android interface.
No rear camera fitted.
Is yours Android or Sensus?
I've been told the camera can't be retro-fitted to an Adroid based version.

According to the dealer I last used in May, the rear camera cannot be retrofitted to vehicles with the Android system.

How can I tell if my xc40 is sensus or android?
