Default Trip Computer - V50

Hi All,

I've just bought a brand new v50 DRIVe with stop-start in the UK. It is the basic model, and has the stalk for the info-center (trip computer) on, but it isn't enabled.

Does anyone know if it is possible to enable this, as all the hardware appears to be included?

Thanks in advance!

I am not 100%, but this would be the software part number to download.

Thanks SVTfocus03! Looks like you are indeed correct with that part number. If only sourcing it was so easy!

I've found some indications that Volvo license the download on a per vim basis, so it needs to be obtained directly from Volvo. So that'll be £250 from a dealer then

£250 for such a simple piece of software seem so steep!
