Honestly I have no idea, not due into the garage for another couple of weeks - it's 4 and a bit years old so I suspect not, although in my view the component was clearly not up to the job, and they know this well enough, so why should I pay. Told them if they don't pay I'll px the car for something non-Volvo - no comeback as yet.

Rumours are, and I'm not aware this has been confirmed anywhere, that the hose was substantially beefed up in late '19 and may not be so susceptible to failure

So I'm in 2nd market for a 2018 R design D5 Powerpulse.

I'd be grateful if anyone can help with a few questions.

1) Is Android Auto standard? Dealer said not but can backfit at £350. I've never heard of backfilling it before, does that sound right?
2) I really want the 21 inch wheels but can't afford the R-design Pro. Has anyone fitted after market 20's or 21's that look similar to Volvo's?
3) Are there any big issues to be aware of? E.g the wheel crabbing problem on GLC's?

Any help appreciated.
On the wheel size side of things - have the 21's on my XC90 with air suspension. Even in comfort setting it's harsh with a bunch of tyre/road noise not of course helped by our universally crap road surfaces - much prefer the ride and lower noise with my 18" winter wheels but on a car that size they look like sofa castors! So I'd be very careful what you go for - that extra bit of sidewall does work in your favour.
