Click to ENLARGE. Yes, I had 2.00 installed by 11am yesterday, April 5, 2022.

The Station & Album Cover display screen you used to get on Sirius XM.

No longer there. Or at least I can get it.

Hit the station. Color on Sirius XM menu changes to BLUE (which is new, & much needed). That is it.


I have done a long post with more pictures & even a YouTube video on what was the 2022 XC60 screen freeze problem. So you can see the old screens there. OK?

So, as you can see from the image directly above Volvo did promise that Version 2.0 will improve radio stability.

As many of us know, to our chagrin & cost, one of the BIGGEST radio issues was the screen freeze.

Well, they have sure fixed that. We (or at least I) don’t get those screens anymore! So they can’t freeze. Amaing.

I just spoke with the amazingly & always HELPFUL Service Manager at my ‘local’ dealership. She has asked me to contact ‘Volvo Care’ & ask them to open a ticket on this. I will do that this afternoon.

I just had an e-mail from a ‘Volvo Forums‘ member saying that album covers are now being displayed for Bluetooth Media. I have NOT tried that. I don’t listen to music via Bluetooth. I am 100% Sirius XM.

2022 Volvo XC60: Version 2.00 (OTA) Update, Just Announced, Looks TOO GOOD To Be True.

Click to ENLARGE. This was what I am at, as of Feb. 26, 2022, after having the update installed by a dealer.

WOW. WOW. WOW. It just looks too good to be true. Can it really be so?

Volvo actually going to release a MUCH-NEEDED Android update to fix all the myriad of bugs. Nah. Can’t be true. Volvo has lied, cheated & deceived us for too long — like 9-months, when it comes to the XC60, Google & Android.

With the last OTA update, i.e., 1.8, I had to wait 18 days between the e-mail & the update. I expect that it will take as long as that, if not longer, for this update to come OTA.

I am going to call a dealer later this week to see if I can take the car in next week to get the update installed by them rather than wait, forever, for the OTA.

I will, of course, keep you updated of my progress & woes. Please keep your fingers crossed for me. I need it. This bloody Volvo XC60 is the BANE of my life.
