You have to save it using the memory button. HUD is part of the seat configuration.

 

But I'm the only one driving the car - so the seat memory isn't being changed...

 

This happened to me too on my first day with the car. The HUD position seems to reset to the original position once the engine is turned off. Try adjusting your HUD and save it and you'll be fine

 

Head up display disappearing from its position almost every day - am I alone ?

This was happening almost from the beginning - once in a few days head up display disappeared from the sight and I had to open settings and put it down. Some time ago, some special software fix was released to prevent that. But since that time it happens to me almost every day ... Somebody else experiencing the same ? Not a big issue, just slightly annoying ... why it is not able to remember its position ?

It happens to me about once every two weeks. I swipe left and adjust from the Functions screen, not settings. I read elsewhere if you saved the seat memory you can reset it pushing the appropriate seat memory # button on the door (1,2,3) but I keep forgetting to try that.

I have been unable to determine what causes it to disappear. I have a MY2017 T8 last updated in early March'17.

 

It's something to do with the custom driver settings and switching fobs. I had it happen once and I had just switched keys. Never happened again.

 

It's not the FOBs in my experience as I only use one FOB.

 

Happens to me 3 or 4 times a week using the car on a daily bases. pressing the memory helps.

 

I think it's all that cabin noise vibrating in all the way up...

lol

 

It happens about every other day for me, I have just given up for now as I have no "want" to add the update to sensus due to all the problems. Longest mine has stayed in position is 3 days. I only use 1 fob.

Agreed. The noise is probably affecting it. Time to sell.

 

The Total Software Upgrade will fix the HUD positioning as it is not recurring for me. However, if you have a MY16, you may want to hold off for a couple of weeks when the Windshield sensor blocked issue should be resolved and the update is available.

uhh...nope..

 

That's not correct. It's still an open bug. Happening for me with May upgrades.

 

Hmmm, It is working for my MY16. I had the problem before the May 8th/16th TSU and I am not having the problem at all now. FWIW, I also re-established my seat/HUD memory settings, driver profiles and key FOBs. You might give it a try and let us know if it is still not staying in position.

I've tried that in the past. FWIW, the TJ on HUD (TJ30646) is still out there and not updated since December. The issue is definitely not fixed.

 

@Zaxxon: Do you have at least the TSU from May 16, 2017? I could see a documentation lag. I have over 3000 miles in the last 30 days and HUD is staying exactly where I want it. Just say in'.

Yes, I do. The HUD issue for our car has varied from three starts in a row to weeks without occurring. It has occurred since its last TSU on 5/24. How often do you change profiles by starting with different keys?

Except for 10 days in late May where my wife and I switched off and on driving, I am driving 100% of the time with my key FOB and I only carry that one. My wife rides with me and she has her key FOB with her ~ 80% of the time. My Key FOB is set to unlock all doors when I drive. My wife's key FOB is set to only unlock her door - passenger door when riding and driver door when driving. It works great.

That could have something to do with it, then. My wife and I use our own keys and we each drive it periodically. She drives it more than I do, so 90% of the time when I enter the car it's switching back to me from her. Maybe it's tied to a profile change.

 

It happened to me each day when I started the car. Pressing seat memory key brought the HUD to the proper position. Then sometimes in spring I got a software upgrade (cannot say when exactly and which upgrade) and since then have never had the problem again.

 

Mine has been doing it a long time now. I mention it each time and it still continues. It has been doing it way more often since the Sensus 2.0 update a few weeks back. Along with the windscreen sensor blocked message but I digress.

 

It did that to me everyday after Sensus 2, but after reprogramming all 3 driver's seat memory positions, the problem never resurfaced.
So far so good. Try reprogramming your seat memory together with their respective HUD positions and see if it'll solve the problem as it appears to have happened in my car.

 

I'll give it a shot.

 

Same here, I'll give it a try as well.

 

What is really interesting, is the random nature of this behaviour: 1-2 weeks ago, it was happening every day, sometimes even twice. For the last one week it did not happen at all (without doing anything extra to prevent it)

 

Agreed, totally random for me as far as I can tell and I had the software fix as well. The car is possessed.

 

FWIW, I have the May update, ONLY use my fob and have the problem with the HUD sporadically. My wife rides with me frequently with her fob in her purse. I wonder if the simple presence of the second fob in the car is enough to cause the drifting of the HUD. I drove about 200 miles yesterday with her in the car and had to readjust the HUD twice.

Yes, it can depending on the your driver profiles and memory settings, unlock settings for doors, sequencing of unlocking the doors and the settings associated with your respective FOBs.

Try to reset and resave all of your setting and save to your particular key fob. Don't forget to unlock your profile first.

I am the only driver here, no other profiles, no changes ...

 

Mine hasn't done it in a few days now, I think since Saturday. Now that I said that, it'll happen tomorrow when I leave in the morning, lol.

Also, my second row fan speed still defaults to fan speed 2 on startup. My dealership said they inquired with Volvo about this and they said that's how it works now. What I don't get it is if I put it on fan speed 4 and then lock my driver profile you'd think it should save and always default to 4 at startup, right? Or maybe I'm just thinking it should work differently than others would expect it to.
