It has been a long time since I was able to get an ‘OTA’ (Over the Air) update for my Volvo XC60 because it was B5. I have been taking it, regularly, to a dealer to have the updates installed. This, alas, has also not always been successful. Last year, when they were trying to install v. 2.7 they totally KILLED my car (i.e., it was not operational, & they had to give me a brand new LOANER for a week!)

So, I had some trepidation about installing this — OTA. But, I took a chance. I have yet to drive it, BUT it started. So, that is a start — & I got no error messages.

Since I have not driven it, yet, I can’t tell you what the improvements to the infotainment system might be. I am curious. I know it is not even worth hoping that we might get a compass.

Got an e-mail from ‘Volvo‘ saying that these updates are now available. Since I (alas) have a ‘B5’ I will NOT get it ‘OTA’ (Over the Air).

As luck would have it I have an upcoming service appointment, for my 1-year service, this coming Monday. I called them today & asked them to kindly add this update. While none of the listed fixes seem applicable, I have learnt from the past updates that each version is more STABLE. That is what I am looking for. Some stable software.

I have been on Version 2.2 since August 2022. Suffice to say that is the best software I have had on this accursed car since I leased it 13-months ago.

I will let you know, of course, what I discover when they install Version 2.5.
