Prius has it too.
Turtle Light - Appears when: Driving a Prius with the battery-pack extremely drained of electricity, in conditions too hot (typically above 105 F degrees), or conditions too cold (typically below -10 F degrees), so that an orange "turtle" icon displays near the speedometer. This warns the driver to avoid forceful acceleration. Nothing you really can do except to avoid use of the battery. Also, relax, the battery fan will automatically turn on as needed IF it starts overheating.

While we're waiting for the prognosis of Dr. Clelands we can count our blessings it wasn't an Elk that was seen on the screen from behind the wheel of a silver arrow.
That is bad, it means you're about to tip over.

Tortoise has now left the building....
Sorry for the delay guys (the Friday night 5-aside crew went Karting at Tranent for a change this week so I'm just back).
The tortoise has gone. Clelands were too busy to take the car without notice this morning - perhaps the place was crawling with tortoise? But, to be fair, they offered to look at it during the early afternoon. Mrs A needed it for her busy social diary so agreed to pop back later in the day........... ........by which time Mrs A had chosen herself to give it a blast down the A72 & back - and then confidently declared that the tortoise had gone missing. This afternoon, Clelands did the diagnosis and confirmed that there were no error codes. So (and folks I warned you about the complex diesel stuff just a few days ago) it was diagnosed as the DPF regeneration - and that Mrs A had done this on her A72 trip. I have just one comment to make. My old XC90 actually had a specific message that told you if the DPF needed a good regeneration. This 'new, improved, XC60 gives you a picture of a tortoise and a generic, almost meaningless message. Plus an orange engine block light with the work 'check' next to it. That, my friends, is progress! Well, I think we can all agree that it was fun while it lasted. Let's put this one back in its box until the Spring! A good weekend to fellow forum members. Arianne PS. If you have a VEA D4 then we are happy to have brought you this piece of research

Thanks for your info Arianne. Quite why it doesn't just say a regeneration is needed is beyond me. It's a misleading symbol to say the least.
A tortoise symbol would generally give the impression that you needed to drive slowly as there was a fault somewhere when in fact the exact opposite is required to rectify the issue. The only tortoise I hope to see is the one at my son's nursery, which in case you're wondering is called Brian, has one eye and is evidently over 50 years old.......and he can be put in the fridge over winter to help with hibernation. No, I didn't make the last bit up but does seem most bizarre. Never been much of a tortoise lover myself as I prefer furry things..........

My old V70 which was a 2011 plate used to display a message saying 'soot filter full / blocked'
Blooming soot filter, it ain't a steam train. |

Did Volvo say "Lettuce have a look to see if we can find the problem"?
It might also mean your engine is crying out for a tank of Shell diesel? I'm sorry... bad jokes but it's late....
