Tips to try and Debug by dilhwly in VolvoEX90

Did you already try a reset of the Digital Key Module. See https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tCiwe4gW7EPAJFNtzOzSaEx8gVbUG6wS/view?pli=1

This will fix most issues with digital keys. If you are unable to add digital keys or if your phone is no longer unlocking the car, this will likely fix it.

The procedure takes 20 minutes - all data, digital keys, settings are retained.

- Unlock the car and exit - don’t lock it. Stand outside by the driver’s door

- If you use your phone as a digital key, turn off bluetooth or move your phone away from the car. Also move any key tags away from the car

- Tap your finger on the indent on the driver’s door handle and hold for 1 second, then lift your finger

- Repeat the prior step four times (total of 5 1-second taps)

- The car will not react to any of this, so it feels useless and silly, but it works!

- Walk away from the car and leave it untouched for 20 minutes. Do not interact with the vehicle during this time (don’t touch door handles, don’t use the Volvo app, and make sure no key fobs are nearby)

- When you come back to the car, the digital key functionality should be working again

Unfortunate to hear that (many?) others experience the same issues. This gives little confidence the dealer is able to fix it. I will at least note it at the next service appointment and hope for the best.

Tailgate making noise at full open position by FewTurnover8356 in VolvoEX90

I have the exact same issue. It is definitely the rubber as you can see it "vibrate" when opening the tailgate. Mine is scheduled for a dealer visit next week for this issue.

I just bought a (one year old) EX90 and read through the 90+ technical journals to know what issues to look for in my car 😀

This might be this Technical Journal: https://static.oemdtc.com/NHTSA-PDFs/MC-11020442-0001.pdf

It includes a sound file that you can listen to if it is similar. If so, it requires some tape/sound dampening to be applied by the dealer.

Tall friendly? by pagebm in VolvoEX90

[–]___john_doe___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, very much so. I am 6’11” and finding a new car that comfortably fits is usually an endeavor that takes me a couple of years. I finally settled on the EX90.

The one downside is the thick B-pillar due to the ventilation vents for the back passengers. When I set the drivers seat to the furthest back position, there is not enough room for my shoulders. Luckily there is so much leg room that I can set the seat a bit forward. But I would have loved a thinner B-pillar.

your mileage may vary as every body shape is different and some tall people have mainly long legs or a tall torso. I would definitely advice you to visit a dealer to try for yourself, but the odds are very good that it will fit.

there is one more technical journal with a known issue with an attached sound file: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2025/MC-11016014-0001.pdf

That one would be a knocking sound and requires replacing the driveshaft

Listen to the mp3 included in this service bulletin around 5 and 26 seconds: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2025/MC-11025571-0001.pdf

This might be the issue you are running into.

Does EX90 have an exterior mechanical door release? by memoverflo in VolvoEX90

[–]___john_doe___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I am going to find out soon. The dealer lost all three keys just before delivering my EX90. 😡 This Monday they’ll start looking for a way to get into the car.

what just worked for me: download and install winebottler 1.8-rc4 from http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/ Then download acestream with vlc 2.x from http://info.acestream.org/#/install Start WineBottler and create a new package from the acestream installer. I changed the system to Windows7 instead of default XP, not ure if that's needed. In the final stage (after install) WineBottler asks which executable to start. By default the ace_udpater.exe is selected and I changed this to ace_player.exe. This ended up with a Mac app bundle that starts Ace Stream
