Enable Autolock (or view car lock status) on XC40 2020? - iceman_jkh - 02-07-2025
Hi,
I was wondering if any 'walk away autolock feature' can be enabled on my XC40 MY20?
For whatever reason, Volvo does not provide the Volvo App/Volvo On Call functionality in Australia... meaning that I cannot remotely lock/unlock or even check my car's lock status via the app. I believe the car/app required a SIM card (and ongoing account) to provide this function and Volvo Australia chose not to offer it.
I would love to be able to enable a 'walk away' (or timed) autolock feature (if it's an available option on this car).
Alternatively, it'd be useful to be able to check my car's lock status when it connects to my wifi/internet.
My house is on a busy street and I park out just out front. The car connects to my home wifi when it gets in range.
I'd love to have the car autolock (in case I ever forget to lock it) or at least be able to check the car's most recent lock status after it connects to my wifi, so I can send myself a notification if I'd left it unlocked.
Thanks!

You have passive arming option which locks back the doors if the car is unlock from key fob and doors are not opened afterwards. It also arms the alarm after couple of minutes if the doors are closed but it does not lock the door.
You also have the slam lock option. It locks the car as soon as the driver goes out and closes the door. But be careful with it, it locks the car even though the keys inside.

Thanks.
I'm aware of those features, but unfortunately not what I'm after in this case.
Would be great to know if an autolock/timed lock was possible.
