volvo xc60 tft display manufacturer

Used TFT clocks DIM from S/V60, XC60, S80II, XC/V70III made in the years 2014 to 2017 (the unit from V40 series can only be used in V40 cars - it has different mechanical shape than x60, x70, x80)

make sure that you located the TFT DIM that matches the transmission type of the target car - Automatic (PRND display) or Manual (+ Gear -) on the right side of the display. Diesel/petrol fuel type of the donor car does NOT matter.

2pcs original Volvo terminals for repair (P/N 30656697) or 2 used terminals from a white DIM Volvo connector which is a standard for all Volvos starting from 2005

Then press DECODE CEM. We must warn you this process can take up to 24 hours(but on average it usually does not take more than 12 hours). During the whole process you can interrupt the decoding process and continue later. If you do the CEM PIN decoding then you no longer need to do it again. Thanks to this you can also make other changes in the vehicle configuration including the TFT retrofit. After this process is done you will receive an email to the account you put in in the beginning.

Then choose CAR CONFIGURATION and then “Car configuration wizard”. Then you only need to choose the “TFT retrofit” wizard. Make sure DIM is connected.

2 new fixing wires (Volvo P/N 30656697 or used) must be connected to position 7 and 8 to the white DIM connector. Keep plugging in the wires into the “body” of the connector until you can hear them click properly. Then you just place and click in the blue thingy to its place. If the wires do not sit they are supposed to the blue thingy will not stick.

Connect DiCE again, turn the ignition key to position II and open VDASH again on your computer. Go to “Car configuration wizard” and choose TFT retrofit again.

VDASH will begin to look for the newly connected TFT DIM. If all wires are correctly plugged in, the update process will begin. If not then check the connecting of the wires again using the multimeter.

Your vehicle will restart itself many times during the process and at the end you will see a picture of the vehicle, the state of fuel and more. At the very beginning the incorrect measures can be displayed, but after a short trial run it should be fixed. The kilometres will also automatically reappear.

You can change and move the clock motivesonly when the engine is running (this does not have any specific explanation). The designated motive is Elegance(grey or brown). It is possible to reprogramme this motive to a blue version “R-design” (using car configuration > advanced settings > Advanced TFT DIM settings > Screen Skins > DIM: R-design menu), motives Ecoand Powerremain unchanged.

1. Temporarily disconnect newly connected cables from the white DIM connector, and connect the original DIM2. Start the engine (SCL the steering lock will now unlock)3. While the engine is running, disconnect the original DIM connector and reconnect the additional wiring, connect the TFT DIM4. Turn the engine off and lock the car5. SCL will NOT turn on again (unless you connect the original DIM). You will not observe any further immobilisation issues.

Upgrade "Adaptive Digital Display" with a 12.3" active FT screen (Thin Film Transistor) for a bigger screen than the standard fitted 8" active TFT screen. It further enhances the car"s exclusive look and makes driving even safer thanks to the clear on-screen information.

The upgrade makes it possible to get "Navigation Advanced" to appear on the 12.3" screen, which is not possible with THE 8" screen. The map is displayed graphically between the gauges, which makes it easier to follow the instructions and find the right way. "Navigation Advanced" displays a zoomed out view when driving straight ahead and zooms in when approaching a junction, at the same time as stating which lane to be in.

It"s hard to believe the XC60 midsized crossover has only been around since 2010. It actually seems older, really. We feel like we"ve seen them pretty much everywhere since forever, but that"s thanks to their popularity (for a Volvo, anyway). Thankfully, Volvo refreshed it significantly in 2014 and made the fascias more sophisticated and did away with a lot of dark exterior plastics, which made it look cheaper than it was. The current model is on its way out soon since Chinese-owned Volvo is looking to redo much of their lineup -- having started out with a bang with the hot-selling XC90 full-sized SUV.

We never really expect to be wowed by crossovers when it comes to the driving experience. Shy of a Porsche Macan Turbo or a Jaguar F-Pace or even the Mazda CX-9, most CUVs are a bit dull in the driving senses. And though the XC60 doesn"t thrill in the turns or provide exacting steering feel, it does move with authority and provide a modicum of fun for something that"s meant to traverse shopping mall lots and the occasional gravel driveway.

Our T6 Drive-E benefitted from Volvo"s more potent edition of their 2.0-liter turbocharged four, largely because it gets assistance from a supercharger for a healthy 302 horsepower 295 lb-ft of torque. The T6 Drive-E also gets the smooth-shifting eight-speed automatic instead of the six-speed automatic that shows up in lesser trims.Ride Quality: Limo-like ride quality. Great seats and good shock absorption. 19-inch Michelin all-season tires ride smoothly.

Though Volvo reworked their XC60 two years ago, they failed to do much with the dated tech, and that"s the biggest chagrin we have for this crossover. It"s just plain old and looks that way. The big keypad in the center stack is convoluted and hard to use. The infotainment system is likewise dated when it comes to controls, despite the fact that its visually appealing and easy to read.

It fares better when it comes to safety. Volvo is synonymous with supreme safety, and the current XC60 is no exception, garnering an IIHS Top Safety Pick+ for the 2016 model year. And that comes as no surprise given Volvo"s commitment to being one of the safest brands in the industry.Infotainment Screen Size/Quality: The 7-inch screen is easy to read but is set in a bit too deep, probably to avoid glare. There"s also no Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. Grrr. At least there"s WiFi.

Safety: The XC60 in this trim pretty much has it all from smart cruise control to pedestrian and cyclist detection. The expensive tech package is worth it thanks to collision detection with full auto brake. The child booster seats are a boon for parents of small ones.

We won"t call it beautiful, but Volvo is more about sophistication and sensibility rather than visual punch (at least with the older generation cars). We like the revised fascias that give the Volvo a bit more presence, and the body is well-sculpted like any modern CUV should be. We like the fact that Volvo eschews busyness in their design language, and even when this car is replaced with the next-gen version, it will still look handsome, especially in charcoal gray.Front: The wide Volvo grille isn"t overly tall like so many other cars today, keeping it clean with simple headlights and a crisp lower fascia.

Volvo takes the time to do their Contour seats just about perfectly, and we wonder why other automakers can"t do as good of a job with support and bolstering. If you"re going to take a long trip in a car, these seats are pretty much perfect. We laud Volvo for not sacrificing comfort for aesthetics, though these seats are pretty attractive.

Despite an odd storage compartment behind the waterfall center stack, the rest of the Volvo works well in the storage department. Good door pockets, a fairly capacious center armrest and good cupholders ensure easy gear stowage. Though you likely won"t haul any furniture in the XC60, there"s plenty of space for a weekend road trip behind the second row.Storage: Good storage options, but it"s no Honda Pilot. There wasn"t much we didn"t like except the strange space behind the center stack, which was hard to reach and made it easy to forget that we left things there since you can"t see it directly unless you peer behind it.

You can wait for the 2018 XC60 in hopes that it looks like a small XC90 (which it will), or you can get this one now. It does everything very well--drives comfortably, looks attractive and stores plenty. You"ll just have to be okay with not having great infotainment technology or audio/infotainment/climate controls. It"s a sacrifice but not a huge one since the Volvo XC60 remains very appealing even in its final iteration for this generation.

Families who want a truly safe automobile that"s not high on visual drama and provides great acceleration and four-wheel traction can"t really go wrong with the XC60, especially in the potent and well-outfitted T6 Drive-E.

For almost a year now, I have been anticipating the arrival of the new 2015 Volvo line-up. So naturally when I got the call that one was available for media use, I cleared my schedule. Volvo has always taken pride in their selves as being one of the top safest brands on the market and as I started analyzing the standard and optional safety features, I was inclined to agree. But that’s not all that Volvo had in store for the upcoming 2015 generation…

When it came time to update their smallest crossover, the XC60, Volvo took a much different approach. Typically when a manufacturer launches a new generation we find that the exterior has been restyled and the interior modernized while much of the underneath bones and beating heart stays the same. In the case of the 2015 XC60, Volvo decided the beating heart was indeed due for a transplant by updating the technology and performance under the hood.

Volvo has incorporated a new front-wheel drive system distinguished as Drive-E. This new Drive-E platform can be connected to two engine options noted by T5 or T6: Direct Injection 2.0-liter Turbocharged 240-horsepower 4-cylinder engine (T5) or a Direct Injection 2.0-liter Supercharged & Turbocharged 302-horsepower 4-cylinder engine (T6). Yes, you read that correctly… a supercharger and turbocharger working together in harmony. How this works is that at low RPM’s the supercharger plays its roll while at higher RPM’s the turbocharger takes over giving a perfect even balance of power without that gap of turbo-lag in the need of acceleration. This interesting configuration is coupled through a 8-speed automatic transmission. This tranny starts of jittery at lower speeds when trying to find the right gear; however, at higher speeds; anything above 30 mph, the transmission is smooth and seamless. Which, leaves me to wishing for the same from the ‘Start/Stop’ feature that seams to only work when its less than 90 degrees outside.

Since my tested XC60 T6 was equipped with the super & turbo, I had 302 reasons to enjoy myself. The 295lb-ft of torque provided an excellent acceleration of 0-60 in a very quick 6 seconds. Whether at low speeds or high speeds, the supercharger and turbocharged worked well together providing instant power when needed. Unlike any other crossover we’ve experienced, the XC60 feels different – it felt more solid and composed. The handling felt superb and with abrupt maneuvers the XC60 responds instantly. Thanks to a smooth suspension, traveling through town or on the open road is comforting – there is a hint of sportiness; just enough to remind you, you just hit a pot hole.

So then on the outside, we still have the traditional Volvo XC60 look. The XC60 continues the elegant classy status without the posh attitude. I admire the simplistic body style, the LED daytime running lights, and the silhouette LED tail lights finished off by the integrated dual chrome exhaust. Wrapped in a specialty $550 Crystal White Pearl Paint the XC60 expresses sophistication. As part of the $1,500 Sport Package, the 20” Titania alloy wheels added a top notch appeal and with the addition of the $800 Active Dual Xenon Headlights the road ahead will always be well lit.

The XC60 offers up premium feel when it comes to the interior design. The blonde over black leather interior was an excellent contrast and as part of that Sport Package; the front sport seats were a bit stiff, but the overall comfort level was high with tremendous bolstering. Both the driver and passenger will have no problem finding superb comfort through the multi-way power adjustable seats and for those cold winter mornings the heated seat feature will certainly come in handy. Rear passengers won’t find much to complain as the seats were also very comfortable though leg room would be a considered a tad tight for taller passengers.

The quality of materials used throughout the XC60 felt of first-rate quality, the center stack infotainment setup is wrapped in a shimmer graphite metal and aluminum trim. The Volvo signature design has a contemporary waterfall and floating effect. The mish-mosh of buttons are a tad confusing and small – it does take quite a bit of time to get familiar with purpose & functionality, but well worth the time & effort. Included with our XC60 was the $4,000 Platinum Trim Level that added tons of options including a Navigation system with Rear Park Assist, Power Tailgate, Auto Dimming Exterior Mirrors, along with similar  goodies.  The XC60 7” infotainment/Navigation display and software system isn’t going to win any awards as it was difficult and cumbersome to use and while the voice activation software is absolutely outstanding, the step by step by step instructions really drove me bonkers.

It’s time to pull out my inner nerd… the Adaptive Digital TFT Display! Depending on your driving mood this digital display allows you to choose through 3 alternate driving themes: Elegance, ECO, and Performance. This Digital TFT display is an alluring set up; the Eco and Elegance displays add a traditional speedo with a shadowing needle that highlights traveling speeds and while under Performance everything turns red and a large tachometer appears with a large MPH display – how can you not like that? But that’s not all to our XC60. As part of the $1,500 Technology Package, it featured a bunch of safety equipment like: Adaptive Cruise Control, Collision Warning, Pedestrian/Cyclist Detection, Distance Alert, Lane Departure Warning, and Active High Beam with Road Sign information. Normally in the testers I don’t care for the Collision Warning and Adaptive Cruise control features. They sometimes get in the way and feel awkward and simply can be startling at times when they go off. But with the XC60, the Adaptive Cruise Control is fantastic – it has a smooth transition of speed and barely notices any adjustments. With the Collision Alert, Lane Departure Warning, and Distance Alert, there is a soft beep that doesn’t give the driver a heart attack or going off every time a driver cuts you off. Kudos to Volvo!

There are some down sides to the Volvo XC60. Interior storage space is very limited – no room for sunglasses, a cell phone, or even my parking garage gate card. The fuel economy is also not so great; EPA is 22 mpg city and 30 mpg highway; however, I averaged 20 mpg combined and after only 150 miles the XC60 was ready for fuel up – and we stayed fairly economical during our test. Although it wasn’t suggested, I used premium grade fuel that gave roughly 300 miles of range.

For quite some time, Volvo has been at the top of my “Must Drive” list. Their modern technology and advance safety features simply are amazing and after experiencing this XC60, as a driver, I gain a lot of confidence in the vehicle. Some might raise an eyebrow to the high sticker price; however, remember, you are getting a lot of car.
