Re: Software update v2.7 OTA released.
Yep, just installed Waze, dead easy just scanned the QR code displayed to login, great info and my daughter loves reporting pot holes as we drive along..... More importantly I also downloaded 'Beach Buggy'!! Won't trouble a PS5 anytime soon but actually quite smooth graphics!

Re: Free SIM card when Serviced at Volvo?
It genuinely is all helping. One last question.. (I have registered fine with Vodafone etc) But it says I need to connect to the cars Wi-Fi hotspot to pair with Vodafone. But when I do this …I get a “unable to connect to the internet” message. Basically when I click on the Wi-Fi network for the car...

Re: MY23 Software Force OTA Update?
Well, literally an hour after I booked with the dealer to get V2.5 ("just bring it in sir....") I got the onscreen saying OTA update available. So installed it last night as I parked up and all OK so far. Interior lights now change as you move the slider, not minutes later! Will have to wa...

Re: MY23 Software Force OTA Update?
Thanks all for the info. I tried various times this week to force an OTA update, forced reset, toggled the auto update on/off etc. Then I was driving along and suddenly the whole centre screen went blank and I thought it might be the update. But no, just another useless piece of coding bug by Volvo ...

MY23 Software Force OTA Update?
Hi All I've got a new XC40 Mild Hybrid using the Android software. The DAB app keeps crashing and needs the soft reset doing by pressing the home key for 30 secs, reboots and all is fine for about 2 weeks then locks up again (I reckon a cache or similar gets full). Looking at the software update log...

Re: LTE SIM Card stopped working
Mine has been intermittent too. Make sure you've accepted terms and conditions for both key profiles. I also reset the whole system by pressing and keep holding the home key. It first shows cleaning mode, keep holding and it reboots. Volvo software is appalling.

Re: MY21 only 1 main key confirmed
Well, I started this thread on my MY21 T3 and have just taken delivery of a MY23 B4 (great trade in and discount offer). I said to the dealer I wouldn't buy it unless he sorted the 2 master keys! He said the orange key could be reprogrammed as a normal key and they wouldn't charge me. Just took deli...

Auto Parking Brake on MY23?
Hi All I just swapped my older MY21 T3 for a MY23 B4 Ultimate (dealer offered me an amazing deal!). One thing I've noticed on the new Google menu system is no option to automatically apply the parking brake when you turn off the engine. The manual says it will do this 'automatically' if it thinks yo...

Re: VOLVO XC40 B4 MHEV - NO WAY TO DISABLE START/STOP
I've just swapped my 21 model for a brand new Mild Hybrid B4. I used to always switch off start stop on my older T3 but went to do the same on the new B4 Google system and as you say, no option at all nor any 'performance' modes that also stopped the start stop. However, I must say that the newer B4...

Re: Tyre Pressure Warning every few weeks
Thanks - very useful and may align to my issue. Mainly short urban drives but the TPMS light does seem to come more often after a few miles into a longer journey (eg 3 times recently on the start of long long trips after about 20 miles or so - so never a relaxing start having to then pull over and c...
