Hi all, I took possession of a new XC90 in mid-February and installed a brand new 24GB Data sim from 3. On Saturday, the internet connection appeared to stop working. While fiddling around, I went to the data usage screen and it says that I have used 26181MB since 16th February!

I have done a week in France listening to internet radio (although this was mostly just there and back, not during the week itself), and I occasionally listen to TuneIn radio and/or Spotify.

This data usage seems huge to me. I can only assume it is the OTA updates. I have maps set to auto-update, but normally it tells me that these are too big, and to do the upgrade using a USB stick. Has this changed?

There have been a few app updates in the last 3 months, but can't believe they would absorb so much data!

I will switch off auto-updates, and see how it goes with the next Sim.
