Hello, there’s a card update for my V60. I downloaded the whole thing at home and pulled it onto a USB stick (ExFat). Supposedly this works with the update automatically when I start the Navi but… not with me :-)( I also find no option for manual installation. What am I doing wrong? Greeting and thank Tommy

Hello Volvo Forum! I’m about to switch from my Audi A6 to a Volvo V60 Plugin Hybrid T6. The 180 km/h limitation was the biggest problem for me at first, but think that the fun of the e-drive makes up for the limit again There are 2 annual cars to choose from, but also a relatively new model from this year. What deters me now are possible patronages of the V60. I.e. a speed limit is recognized, then the car automatically throttles down to this speed. Can this be or is there only one warning in such cases? What I have read is: There is an optical warning and in current models still an acoustic warning, which can be deactivated however. Ok? I’ve already driven the V60 test, but there are always new questions on the case of someone tips/comments for/against a change to the V60 has: I’m open for all thanks!

Hello, I would like to put a spare wheel in my car instead of pump and glue. But I don’t want a mini spare wheel. Here are some photos. Can you put a normal wheel in? Is this so easy or do I have to buy another styrofoam so I can set it up? Thank you.

Hello, I didn’t know in which category I should open the topic. It’s about a roof box that I want to paint. It has a golden color. We don’t like it. I did an experiment, but that went into my pants. I had a primer and a paint spray. See appendix. The paint went off very easily. e.g. with my fingernail. Photo also in the attachment. With my garage neighbor we found that it was grinding. By hand was not enough. He was sanded and primed for testing with his device. Here the paint didn’t go off. Errors occurred when grinding. I ran off the black color with the grinding machine and wanted to start again. Have also read. That the color is only up to 50 degrees suitable. That is achieved quickly in the sun. I needed a professional advice. With what should I prime and paint? However, should not cost much. The color can be grey or black. High gloss or matt. The whole should be heat resistant and the color should not go off easily.

Hello Volvo driver, I didn’t regret having switched to Volvo a few years ago, but I corrected the error now. But I would still have a few questions though I have searched the web already, but did not find a real answer. So my Fzg. is a V60 T5 from 2019 I have two questions about the Sensus system. How does the WiFi own Volvo Hotspot function work? I connected my phone with it but it says it can’t be connected. How can I update the Navi card material – and how and where do I see which one is currently installed? I had already contacted a Volvo dealer, and he also confirmed that you can download this on the Volvo homepage car. There is no way to get there for the V60 2 series. And in the Fzg. is only that the file is too large and the button is grayed out anyway….except Baltic & Finland. Thank you for any help and answers – Greeting Tom

Hello, I’ve been driving a Discovery sport for 4 years. The vehicle is going back now and it has to be something new. I can now take an XC60 or Discovery sport for exactly the same amount. I was very happy with the vehicle but driving the same vehicle again would not be a new attraction. In my well-known circle everyone feels the Land Rover brand of higher quality than Volvo. Do you see that as well? OK, the question in a Volvo forum may be a bit difficult.

Hello all, can you please give me your gasoline consumption? City country highway 130 km/h I drive with a felt too high consumption. On average 10 liters, am not a rascal… Thanks.

I was really happy when my new XC60 2 was finally free of flaps and knarz noises. Now, after half a year, it starts here as well: the silver loudspeaker covers of the B&W system (in the two front doors) clutter. In basses the apertures are significantly louder than the music, and even at medium volume. Depending on the road surface, the squeaking can also be heard continuously during the ride – in case of unevenness anyway – even though the music is off. The most annoying thing is with audio books, because the mostly male speakers constantly cause the covers to clutter. The peculiarity is that the apertures are absolutely fixed on the outside. There is definitely a temperature dependence: when the car is warm, it is clearly worse. My friend says the problem is known, and there is also an official remedy from Volvo against it. Various parts of the door panel were replaced, however, and that is my problem: with exactly 0 success. The repair has absolutely nothing to do with the noise of the speaker.

Hello, in September our lease of the V60 ends. The new car (no Volvo) comes ‘unfortunately’ already in July and can not be pushed further backwards (VW). I now had contact with the dealer regarding the return of the Volvo and he told me that the car goes back directly to the lessor. So Volvo/Santander contacted and the man on the phone said that despite payment of the instalments until the end no early return was possible. The car is also brought back on its own axis. The return order is triggered only after the last installment of the last rate. Did any of you have such a thing already and must the Volvo still be mandatory? Most insurances give only 60 days of leeway. There is probably only the SF discounts on the new one and the Volvo with the SFs for the rest of the time completely new and very poorly classified. Does so, or does that make it? I was clear at contract conclusion that the costs for the return are included in the instalments, but it was not clear that the car goes back to the dispensing dealer. Thank you.

Hello together, last Thursday I proudly took over my first Volvo from a used car dealer. A R Design S60 in black with only 10800km from 1st hand. I drove with it then about 250km. Today I wanted to leave early, but unfortunately in vain. The ignition went on, but the car did not start any more. Then Volvo Assistance informed me and sent me the ADAC. Unfortunately, however, it could not do anything, because the S60, despite battery booster, did not jump any more. So towing to the next Volvo dealer, after a short time I got the diagnosis that a control board for the hybrid drive is defective. Repair approx. 2000€!!! The warranty of Volvo pays nothing, because the 1st customer service since 3/2022 is overdue. One has to say that the car has not been moved since 3/2022 and he probably stood for a 9 months. It was a former hire of a company. So I bought the car, of course, I immediately agreed an appointment to meet the customer service since 3/2022. One must say that the car has not been moved since 3/2022 and he probably stood for a 9 months. It was a former hire of a car dealer. But then I should have been used?
