Default Indicators will not keep consistent timing..

Ok, this is really weird and i noticed it ages back and recent software update has not caused this...

Pretty sure this is not some silly standard volvo feature but does anyone else notice their indicators simply will not keep an even tick-tock timing? You get sporadic skips, jumps slower and faster etc

The actual flashing indicator when i look at the reflection in cars in front keeps perfect time with the ticky tock on instrument panel and they skip out of time in perfect sync.

Tell me this is not normal...

Mine does it occasionally as well but I hadn't noticed it until someone on here mentioned it and set off my OCD.

Yep also noticed this eratic timing of the indicators because of the noise timing changing...was wondering if I was imagining it!
Are you both on latest sensus software like me?

Mine has done this from new and has continued since the sensus update.... so it is normal. I find it irritating. I quite like the way the hazards gallop rather than click on and off evenly though....

Same. Updated 2 weeks ago but done it since day 1...

Trouble is once you notice it if you have any form of OCD etc it bugs the sh1t out of you.

Sorry if I've made more people realise an annoyance with their car LOL
