Can I take my 2019 XC60 T8 through an automatic car wash? Does the Solutiona braking system need to be deactivated first?

That should be in your owners manual or call your local dealer .

The chance of a Volvo owner that has that braking system seeing your post is slim.

The automatic braking and other systems must be switched off before entering a car wash.

Interesting, the instructions state to turn off the engine!
