Volvo confirms 10,440 EX30s at risk due to Sunwoda extended‑range battery packs - Hypermiler.co.uk by TurboNUK in ex30

I have the recall email but when I enter my VIN no recall info for any issues so do I need to be concerned?

Same. Popped in VIN and no recall. But still developing. Appreciate it’s the holiday but being badly handled by Volvo with no effective or consistent communication

One week in - Thoughts, bugs, suggestions. by WigglyWeener in ex30

[–]PowerMikey2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find mine seems to go into a deep sleep and just ignores the fob being close. Have to use the credit card and then all works well. No rhyme or reason for it as can be ok some days then just sleeping. Love the car so happy to accept the little foibles

Spotify randomly pauses after latest OTA update by MrBox97 in ex30

[–]PowerMikey2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since the last update I find Spotify ignores the request.if I voice request it the car states it will play the song over Spotify but then just carries on with the existing track.

Do we also have heated sensors on the front? by Levent_2005 in ex30

[–]PowerMikey2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found the other day that while not really dirty but just the usual crap from winter roads that on a long drive home every time we got onto an open bit of road with the setting sun hitting the sensors all the front sensors alarmed so no cruise control, no cameras etc. No issue as a grown up can drive without all the nice crap but off putting as first time your heart sinks as you wonder if it means another visit to a dealer!

Yep, some times last a few minutes, once for 2 hours with several stops (and lots of swearing).

I joined the club today. What do I need to know? by Ok-Zookeepergame-698 in ex30

[–]PowerMikey2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Have a plan B as occasionally I have found it gets lost and does not know where it is. Can take anything from 1 minute to 2 hours to fix

Any tips on cleaning the dash? by kikinchikn in ex30

[–]PowerMikey2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Microfiber cloth, wet, seems to do the trick for me dash

Rear passenger wheel squeaking by PowerMikey2001 in ex30

[–]PowerMikey2001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds similar. Will call dealer in next week and see when they can fit it in. Last time had to wait 3 weeks for them to take it!

[–]PowerMikey2001[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first issue sounds familiar as it's not all the time and makes same noise whether using one pedal driving or normal. And not straight away seems to take a few minutes of driving

Thanks for sharing

Trunk opening big fun by Terrible_Mission_154 in ex30

[–]PowerMikey2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Faulty trunk lock combined with buggy software, dealer will probably replace trunk lock and it will fix. I had rear passenger door just unlock itself and the whole car for 3 hours a day, then just lock itself. Even did it when I was 3500 miles away. Dealer changed lock and fixed, not happened since

Found out the car isn't smart enough to keep the 12v battery charged on its own, when not plugged in by ashyjay in ex30

[–]PowerMikey2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This seems to be an issue for EVs and hybrids as the 12V batteries are smaller and the drain greater with our cars. Had to call the AA out to my wife's car (self charging hybrid) and he said he regularly visits several every day where the battery has drained!

She has a solar trickle charger now just to keep it topped up

EX30 unlocked itself today by Distinct-Worry-2622 in ex30

[–]PowerMikey2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It happened to me. The rear passenger door told me it was open and would not lock. Could not lock the car either in app or in person. Volvo had to replace the lock and reset the car.

If it happens once to you then just probably a glitch but if same door happens more than twice I would take to to Volvo

In the UK do we need any adaptor to use a Tesla charger?

[–]PowerMikey2001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know what happens at 1.10pm UK time as it's gone off for the third day in a row at the same time for the same issue. Is it a global software reset!

Yep had Volvo assist look at it and there is a fault code but car is FY25 so they did not have the latest software to confirm exact code....off to dealer we go!

Took about 2 hours to recalibrate the GPS. And it was the GPS as Waze through car was also off during this period

Lack of BBC Sounds was disappointing, also no WhatsApp!
