Maintenance Q for recent Volvo owners - Service reminders
Hi, wife has a new 2018 XC60 which we just got this year and is our first Volvo so don’t know what to expect and hope to get some insight.
I know my model has a maintenance scheduler that the dealer may have set in the car to prompt for reminder to book next apt, etc... Just wondering if anyone has experienced that and know how frequently and annoying those may be and if those could be easily turned off or delayed by the owner ??
Reason is we are expecting our 1st maintenance service (oil change) to be around Jan/Feb 2019. However since the dealer is really far from us, we wanted to schedule the service at the same time as the seasonal tire swap which is usually at Oct and April for us. It seems silly to do it sooner since the wife only drives ~10km a day if that and so we wanted to wait until April for that service. However, she gets scared and annoyed easily so I don’t want to hear too much complain either If I’m asking her to wait now.
Any input from fellow Volvo owners are greatly appreciated and sorry if it seems like a silly question since we can’t find anything regarding online but thank you in advance.
