Default 3 month quality assurance inspection

I collected our new XC90 this morning, very nice it is too!

I see there is a 3 month quality assurance inspection box in the service booklet. Has anyone been back for this and what does it cover?

My pick up was good, all paperwork ready, service/handbook, screen wipe and three keys. Plus a remote control XC90 for the kids.

Leather wipes?

My car went in a week or two back. I think its just a visual inspection, don't believe any fluids etc. are replaced. I noticed a few things related to setting and preferences reset within Sensus when we picked it up. For example climate was off, auto wipers 'remember' setting had been reset, radio station text had been switched off. Nothing connected to driver profiles appear to be reset however.

So I assume the car must have been plugged in and hopefully flashed with the latest software. Also, when I called to book it in the service department said something along the lines of "Will you be waiting for the vehicle.... oh no, hang on, its an XC90, we need longer for all the software updates, we'll give you a car"!.

At the time of pickup, I was also told about this quality inspection after 3 months.
I picked it up from a far away dealer, so I will go to a local dealer for the QA checks.

Remote control XC90, cool, kids must be loving it

Where did you get it from - via the dealer? Is there a choice of colour? How much is it? Might be tempted myself!

Not sure what the latest is for the QA check, but it used to be 3 months/3000 miles, which ever came first.
Normally takes around an hour, time for a coffee.
If they are going to do software updates, then it will be a longer wait.

When I raised a few points about the car the dealer said this in the email

"Your car is entitled to a Free QAI Check (Quality Assurance Inspection) at 3 Months or 3000 Miles (whichever occurs sooner) at this point we will check over the car and install any further software updates. This will be an ideal time to cover some of your points or any others you may have."

Attached is a photo of the remote control car. Wasn't offered a choice of colours, very smart though. Kids are outside now trying to break it already!

The box has item number 2300595-100-000 / 73700.

No leathers wipes supplied, should they have been?

Just to clarify, I didn't get that remote car, unless the dealer hid it in the boot as a surprise

Just had my quality assurance check carried out on my XC90, it took about 40 minutes, they just plug it in and check everything is ok and up to date and gives you the opportunity to get any issues that have cropped up addressed, they did mine while I waited.
