2012 C30 came back from service at Voldat with left side speakers not working or playing sound only faintly. Audio tuning display suggests left side no longer connected. Voldat says they didn’t use any audio system codes. Any thoughts. Good Volvo audio service in Melbourne?

Can they check it out again for you?
Mark is a brilliant Volvo tech.

He is fantastic but I don’t want to go all the way out there, leave the car, take public transport all the way home (1.5 hours) then back again to pick the car up after just going through all that rigmarole just now. He didn’t suggest it either. He wonders if it might reset itself if I fiddle with it and the menus some more. If not, I’ll need an expert.

Ahhh.
No loan cars anymore?

@iceton1975 could suggest a fixer.
03 9874 5544 BMG is his work

Mmmm proceed with caution. Berry do use a repairer who knows his stuff, but they warned me when I wanted my V50s AM band restored (common failure) that he was slow and would have to be politely and repeatedly reminded to do the work. And so it was... 2 weeks off the road because the car was in bits and he was slow as a wet week.
Hard to say if any of the dealers would know what the problem is, but maybe a reflash of the relevant software may fix it?

The speakers are known to fail

Software will not fix it ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,what area are you in as most likely the unit maybe I can help and also have lots of loan cars if required. Surely it's not just your balancing that's gone out.

Yes, Mark says there are often problems with the audio systems in C30 but mostly with AM technology. I live in Maidstone area, so Moorabbin is a bit of a haul whether by car or public transport. It’s worth it for the service Mark provides. In this case though I’m not too happy about leaving a car with perfect audio and getting it back without. Well, it will work out.

As always, Mark to the rescue. Told me to switch to AM/FM and scan and see it if it fixed a glitch, and it did. The guy is good. Thanks for all advice. Now to find a good price for 4 Michelin PS 4 tyres
