I belive the functions that can be performed, are only under each of the separate "Infotainment" functions (NAV, Radio, Media,etc). I have only really explored the Nav function so far...
The official instructions say that My Car FAV is possible, just as Media, etc., but people are having difficulty getting it to work (other models). Burying the traction control setting deep in the menu instead of having a separate external button (like every pedestrian, boring car out there has) would only be excusable if you could use FAV to activate it with one button.
I work for Momentum Volvo....I should know this, but there are plenty of smarter people here so I learn just as much from you guys.
Honestly, we just do not get enough seat time in these cars to figure out the small things like this. I know how to set it up for media, but this would be much more useful for polestar cars
I have delivered the final v60p that we are getting but I'm still going to play with the other cars to see if there are other hidden options it can be set to
It would be nice if this worked. I took a quick look at it this morning, but didn't see any option for setting the *fav button in the My Car menu. The ideal solution would be a software update that would allow one of the blank buttons on the center stack to turn of the ESC, maybe the button just above the park assist, so you wouldn't have to go into the menu.
Each of those buttons are used for a different function...for example, camera, lane departure, etc. So they only be individually activated, not reprogrammed to separate functions
Moose, are you saying you cannot get any MyCar setting to attach to FAV in a regular S/V60? According to the manuals, that is 100% doable on any Volvo that uses that system. Whether the traction control reduction/sport mode on the P* is specifically locked-out is another question. But if it doesn't work at all, then the Volvo literature is all wrong. Is it not in everyone's instruction manuals?
Hopefully there's some "fix" that will be offered on this in the future. Not being able to quickly and simply turn off ESC is probably the biggest frustration I have at the moment, since I pretty much turn it off on every dry day.
Because I agree it is a major annoyance on this particular car, I initially asked if it could be programmed to be set to off by default, since it is still and well on even in that setting, but no. That's more understandable to me than preventing the FAV button assignment.
