I tried three different smartphones, same result. They're discoverable, but pairing fails. What malfunction are you experiencing?

That's exactly what's happening to me. Phones see the Volvo, but won't pair. I haven't spent much time on it, figured it was a deeper issue. Probably best to take it to a workshop for diagnosis.

Took it to a workshop as suggested. The Bluetooth module needed a reset and a software refresh. Cost 45€. Thanks for the advice.

I have a similar issue with my S80, but I haven't checked the error memory. My phone won't connect via Bluetooth. Have you tried other phones to see if it's device-specific?
