Hi to All.
I've recently been having a problem with my 2014 V40 XC. Basically at any time while driving, random warnings appear on the dash - ABS, ESC, Engine Coolant, Tyre Pressure, Steering malfunction, Pedestrian protection and many more. The speedo reading and indicator repeaters come and go too. There seems to be no problem with these systems, it's just random warnings.
The car was first looked at a year or so ago when the garage (Volvo Service Centre) cleared and reset the errors, installed a software update to the DIM (Driver Information Module) and returned it to me. Things were fine for a few months but these errors have been returning and getting more common recently. It can go a day or so with no problems but the errors always reappear. I had the vehicle battery replaced a few weeks ago as this was mentioned on the original service report as being a possible cause - there has been no change since this was fitted.
Occasionally the car will not start - just displaying errors and not turning over. If I get out, lock and unlock the doors and try again it will generally start after 3 - 4 tries.
Car is currently at the garage where they have been trying various modules but the fault appears to be worse.
Has anyone experienced something similar?
I'm going to be facing a pretty severe bill for these tests with potentially no progress.
I'd be gratefull for any ideas!
Colin.
