I had a Volvo dealer update my software at the shop from 2.10 to 3.0.3. However, when I check the settings in the car it still shows 2.10 but in the Volvo phone app it shows 3.0.3. Is it just a matter of time for the car console to catch up or is this an issue? The tech at the dealership didn't know. submitted by /u/almeertm87 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Recently my Volvo radio stopped making sound when connected to Bluetooth/spotify. The screen in the car shows it as connected to the iPhone … the iPhone is working and can stream to other external speakers. The volume is up on the phone. I unpaired and repaired it from the car, which fixed it for a day. Previously, it worked fine for a few years. ? Is the stock Volvo stereo able to be updated if needed? Not sure why it “appears” to be playing, but no sound. The radio works fine submitted by /u/Frosty_Mammoth5488 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I wear prescription glasses so I always have a pair of clear glasses and a pair of sunglasses. Have any of y’all worked out good solution to the lack of a glasses holder in your Volvo? I have a 2019 XC 60 T8 Inscription that I bought used. I’m struggling a little bit with the lack of drivers storage. Admittedly I drove an F150 before this with a massive console. submitted by /u/Smallwoodlandthings [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I am a first time car owner and a fellow volvo owner. I have been driving around all winter with an embarrassingly loud sound whenever I brake and rust started forming on one of my rims and I just learned that it’s due to poor brakes!! I was hoping y’all could empower me with key questions to ask a mechanic (and things I need to know or what to expect) so that I don’t pay an insane amount of cash. Thank you! ? submitted by /u/cowabungadude77 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

2001 V70 XC. Changing my oil for the first time and trying to figure out what’s up with this drain plug. It’s got a plastic tapered washer (which has a chip in it) instead of an aluminum washer. It’s also bored out on the threaded side and has BH stamped on the hex head. I wouldn’t be overthinking this if I didn’t have a decent oil leak coming from the area. I thought it was the gasket but everything’s so grimy above the plastic skid plate that I can’t tell. The lack of a crush washer (with this plastic taper instead) makes me wonder if the leak is from a poor seal here instead. Anybody g ..read more

I saw old posts where they stated you could order accessories through the osd concierge at a discount and have them ready for you in Gothenburg when you pick up your vehicle. When I called the concierge they stated they could give me a rebate coupon but I would have to buy the accessories through my local dealer. Does anyone have information on how I could have the items ready for me in Sweden (cargo cover and rubber mats) or is there a better way for me to go about getting a good price on accessories. submitted by /u/fleazus [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hey everyone! I'm happy to share a fix i made for the dreaded sunroof seal problem which affect most of the new gen Volvos (S/V60, XC60, XC90 and V90). As most of you are aware, this gap, if left as-is, can lead to some nasty water damage (google it if you're not aware..) I initially made it for myself after being quoted 900$ to get the whole seal replaced by the dealer while my V90CC is still under CPO warranty (No thank you stealership). I then asked a couple of V90 FB groups if anyone needs this part and the response has been overwhelmingly positive. One thing led to another and I've s ..read more

Hi everyone, I'm thrilled to join the club with my first Volvo, a 2019 XC60 T8! It's been fantastic so far, and I'm looking forward to many adventures on the road. I have a question for you all regarding the Volvo app. I've managed to sync it with my iPhone and can control most of the car's features remotely—lock, lights, climate, you name it. However, I'm running into an issue with the app not displaying the fuel and charge state. I've attached a screenshot. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is there a step I might be missing, or a setting I need to adjust? Thanks in advance for ..read more

Got my ‘20 T6r at around 12k miles, now she’s at 33k. There’s not much I haven’t enjoyed about this car. I read on Reddit somewhere (I know everything I see isn’t the truth lol) that Volvo understates their engine figures, is that true to any degree? Having previously owned a tt Q50 with similar figures, I feel like this is significantly faster. Am I wrong? Very curious submitted by /u/Woods509 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
