Does anyone else tow a caravan with ATC with a new volvo? ( 23 plate)
I have a 23 plate XC40 B4 mild hybrid. When hooked up, unless the engine is running, sometimes the ATC switches of and then comes on again, each time going through its checking cycle.
I previously had a 69 plate XC40 and this did something similar in that sometimes you needed to open a door to get the ATC to come on. Dealer told me there is no really permanent live anymore as the car will switch off anything when the battery is a bit low and something is draining power.
New car seems to do this more often though and I suspect its being too clever for its own good.
Anyone had anything similar??
Thanks
John
