Default New D4 90 R-Design Questions

Taken delivery of my new S90 this morning and I have a few questions/observations

Tunein radio app is missing from the download store. All other apps are there and I have downloaded and tested them just Tunein radio is missing . Any ideas?

I have only driven 12 miles and I am already regretting not paying for the front parking sensors. Can they be retrofitted?

I didn't get the Volvo on call option either but thought I could precondition the cabin from a timer like all my other cars, appears not unless I am missing something?.

Apart from these I am very happy to have finally got it after a 6 month wait from order.

Tunein is there on mine, a V90, but built about 8 weeks ago, so I dont know.

You can get the parking added I believe, need to check the dealer price for this, you can certainly dealer fit the park pilot, althoough mine is factory.

On the pre-conditioning, this is done through VOC on mine though it doesnt work, which I believe is a current software issue, not sure if it works without VOC.

I know that this will be ignored but, these are big cars, when ordering please order front sensors!

I guess if anyone needs to park at tight spaces frequently like i do, yes one of the first options i check is to see if the car comes with front parking sensors. The other option i absolutely need is bright led headlights, although I do often get people flashing me back thinking they are too bright. Apologies i changed the subject a bit...

I believe the only way to get front parking sensors when not factory fitted is to go for the parking pilot system about £1000 but at least the car will park itself too !

Hi,

I have the same issue, no front parking sensors. Is it possible to request parking pilot after car is delivered? I've had my S90 R-Design since end of March. I seem to reverse into any space now as front parking is a lottery. lol

Couple of questions from another new owner.

I have a 2019MY R Design and thought it came with the lights in the door handles but cannot see anything? Did I miss an option?

Also it says the Volvo On call has expired and to contact my dealer, is this normal?
Cheers

I'm pretty sure they're only on the Inscription? I have them on mine and they act as puddle lights and they light up the handle recess
