What is this symbol for?

I'm not trying to get your hopes up here but, these are my thoughts:

I had a demo XC90D5 last week. When I strayed near the white lines on the motorway it made a noise from the speakers, but did nothing with the steering. On my XC90 (with intellisafe and Xenium), when I stray near the white lines on the motorway the car tries to steer back away from the line. If I hold the wheel and carry on, then the wheel vibrates to warn me.

On your car you said that when you ran over a white line you initially thought that there was something wrong with it as it vibrates.

So, some XC90's have self steering (ie the wheel moves or vibrates) and some don't (ie you just get an audible warning).

Now, and this is the point I am not sure of. I thought you only got self steering if you opted for self parking, and for self parking you need the 360 camera.

Or perhaps I am barking up the wrong tree...

It's the flux capacitor! (I slay me)

Apparently it's meant to be vehicle status. Ours moves about when you first start the car (well, turn it on as it's a T8, it often never "starts" during trips), and then settles down. I think it's meant to depict that it's checking things.

I think what I was experiencing was the lane departure warning, I've untucked that on the Sensus and now it doesn't do it. I imagine on a motorway journey it may be good but for the lanes round here that are barely wide enough for a push bike it was doing my nut! But definitely no self park, surround cameras or self steering, maybe next time!!
It had its first wash today, looking all shiney new again since the weather is looking better for a while
