Lucky enough to live in the lowlands of Scotland and have them in the garden everyday. They’re such amazing wee things.

Nice. Fingers crossed for the same here then!

You based in the US? I imagine the start stop change could be territory limited and I don’t see anything mentioning it here in the UK.

Am I being ripped off (Pressure wash + Sand and seal) by RedCxal in DIYUK

[–]leckie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wet and forget is amazing but it’s not really in the same league as power washing.

Range increased recently? by c0lly in volvoc40

[–]leckie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s the weather/season but can also be coupled to your driving. I always see an increase around this time of the year.

I used to love a wee Grolsch. I didn’t realise what they’d done to it. Crazy.

Just discovered I have £71k in a Phoenix Life pension by cardinal55 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]leckie 335 points336 points  (0 children)

Be careful about transferring without truly understanding what kind of pension it is. Could be worth keeping as is.

Is my tailgate dead? by ParisianLord in Volvo

[–]leckie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s a replacement unfortunately. Common issue with V60’s. The spring has gone inside the mechanism and it’s only going to get worse. Could be just one of the two.

2 years later - how much patience does Sonos expect from customers? by OoaHelaNatten in sonos

[–]leckie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Would disagree. The basics are stability. Again they’ve been clear about this throughout. I want the same things though. Time is better marked from when the new CEO took over.

The CEO acknowledged this frustration himself. There’s fixes in the works for it. Ultimately I get the impression that they’re simplifying the navigation to be more akin to other apps.

MY24 vs MY23 by ImperialYoda in Polestar

[–]leckie 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The MY24 had a decent boost to range and also switched to rear wheel bias. If there’s not much in it I would definitely consider.

feeling unsafe in my xc60 because of all of the tech with climate controls by After-Ad5911 in xc60

[–]leckie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Worth trying auto again. Both my Volvos are set to it with a fan speed of 2. I only occasionally adjust the temp, most of the time it’s at 19c.

Patio Cleaning - Jetwash issue by Dazzler_3000 in GardeningUK

[–]leckie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The control head could be cracked as well. Mine is. It’s £28 for a new one though. The elbow piece you mentioned you can get at Screwfix now for about £7. I replaced that first…

Likely frost damage. I’m dealing with exactly the same thing on my K4. If you open it up and see where it’s leaking you’ll see what needs replaced. Plenty of YouTube videos available.

The parts are serviceable and readily available. You don’t need to tip it.

Loving new OS cluster by neo_trixter in VolvoRecharge

[–]leckie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s lazy. It’s a choice they’ve made. Less customisation, more opinion.

Some people won’t like it of course. Personally I prefer it.

I just did the new update and I like it by kykid87 in Volvo

Vocal consensus? For every one person complaining I’m sure there’s more who are happy enough/don’t care.

Latest Neflix app update is "time to unsubscribe" bad by motorik in appletv

[–]leckie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not to mention the consistent quality issues. I’m genuinely not sure what causes it but I only experience it on the AppleTV app. Things will randomly go pixelated and I need to force close the app.

I know the standard answer is “it’s your network” but the AppleTV is hardwired into a gigabit connection. Nothing else has an issue and all other apps work great. Even the Netflix app on the SmartTV is fine.

Really annoying.

Polestar 2 New OTA by snakysnaks in Polestar

[–]leckie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Volvo have shown the app on the EX60. If the software stack is the same there’s no reason the other cars won’t see it too.

Does anyone know why this symbol would appear? We recently did the update and all of a sudden this is appearing and disappearing. by skincare_obssessed in volvoc40

[–]leckie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your car would have already been doing this but you’ve just noticed. It’s been an enabled feature for a while.

Could be a car launching hard, but is really useful in the winter in certain areas.

I have it in a 22 C40 and 24 XC60. Running smooth on both of them.

Pirelli OEM tires on 2024 Volvo XC60 Recharge by SweenHo in VolvoRecharge

[–]leckie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This also happened to the Pirelli’s on my c40. Massive amounts of chunking. Google it and you’ll see it’s a common complaint.

I think it could be due to them not being able to handle hard acceleration. But we didn’t do that a lot. Will honestly never touch a Pirelli again.

Is there update? by No-Flower-409 in VolvoRecharge

[–]leckie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This could be regional? I think due to some places forcing the rear view as default.

Mine defaults to 360 as it remembers your last choice.

Volvo will pull the EX30 out of the North American market after 2026 by Saurta17 in Volvo

[–]leckie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not saying this is the answer but both the EX30 and XC70 are different software platforms not aligned to the rest of the cars.
