I drive a 2020 V60 T8. I recently drove the same car that was a 2025. On the facelift, the shifter action is so much nicer and also the P button has much more travel to it which makes it feel way more tactile.

I’d love to have the ability to switch from D->R and vice versa with just one push/pull.

I’ve noticed that Orbit now has an option to switch between the pre-facelift and facelift EGSM patterns. I’m aware that the logic board of the shifter module is specific to the car it’s installed in but then again, Orbit didn’t have the previously stated option when this topic was last discussed.

Is the logic board thing still an issue and/or can the Sensus OS even process such a change?

Hi,

searching for others using Orbit with the same car, anyone around?


Best Regards

Hello, I have a Volvo XC60 from 2020. The car is not running Android.

What type of plan do I need to pay? I see there are different plan, some with PIN and some without PIN.

I'm interested in activating the Parking function, I want to mention that I have 360 camera and all ultra sonics, and I want to disable the auto stop function.

Can I do this, with this software?

hey all,

New to the forum. Although I've been lurking in the background. 

I see some older threads around shift knob swaps but I wanted to create my own thread to see if things have moved on since the 2023 conversations once had. 

I have a 2022 T8 Recharge PHEV and I want to swap my R-Design Plus leather shift knob for the crystal Orrefors one. 

I have orbit already and can make any confg changes if need be.

My question is, is this shit knob swapp I'm proposing  simple and straight forward or is this not been done before? The other threads talk about a cable shifter swap with a drive by wire but I think these two shifters I'm referring to are "the same'

pictures attached for reference.

Dear Forum Members,

2024 XC90 came retrofitted with front heated seats. All was working fine until yesterday (see Pic. 1) when software got over-the-air update and front heated seats' touch controls have disappeared from central console (see Pic. 2). How to easily restore them back? Is this only matter of enabling configuration pos. 180 HEATED FRONT SEATS and saving new value to CEM?

Thanks in advance.

       

I have a Volvo xc90 t8. I'm going to program him the becm module and use dsa. But I don't have the data. Who can provide it? I can pay for it.The part number is 32223623

I'm no longer able to access the forum via Tapatalk. Is this app not supported anymore? That would be unfortunate if so.

Hi! I'm going to retrofit the alarm and motion sensor to my 2018 XC40.
I thought it had an alarm because the red light was flashing, but no… there's neither an alarm nor a sensor. The sensor mounted in the dome light has factory wiring, so it's just a matter of installing it, but the alarm under the windshield wipers has no wiring at all, and I'll have to make some myself. 
I know it has three wires:
-red (fuse 30)
-brown (negative) 
-purple???

Can anyone tell me where to connect the brown and purple wires?

Hello everyone,

I have recently noticed an issue with my Volvo V60 R-Design D3, model year 2019, and I would like to ask if anyone has experienced something similar.

I first noticed it while driving in Polestar mode (activated via Orbit). I do not believe the Polestar activation is related to the problem itself – it was most likely just a coincidence that I discovered it at that time.

Under full throttle, I can hear a slight whistling noise, but it sounds more metallic than a typical turbo whistle. There are no unusual noises under partial load at all.
The noise seems to occur mainly when the engine is warm. I have not properly tested it with a cold engine yet, as I usually drive gently until it is warmed up.

Interestingly, the noise can also be heard briefly after braking or deceleration. I tested this next to a wall to use it as a sound reflector, which made it easier to notice.

Under full load, the noise appears roughly between 3,000–3,500 rpm or possibly 3,500–4,000 rpm (I am not 100% certain about the exact range yet).

I have checked the turbo visually and it looks fine. There is no loss of power, no warning lights, and no other noticeable symptoms.

Has anyone experienced a similar metallic whistling noise under full load or after braking on the D3 engine?

Thanks in advance for any input.

OrBit 1.2.3 is released! This update is minor UI improvments and introduce a couple new features as well as some normal bug fixes. We are committed to more frequent releases in 2026 to get new features out sooner. 

(Latest version of OrBit can always be downloaded here:https://app.spaycetech.com/orbitupdate/download) The "update notification" in OrBit will be sent later, but you can download the updated install right away from the link.


New features:

UI Updates - Added icons to most buttons and displays to make navigating OrBit easier and quicker with familiar use and when English is not your primary language.

New Configurator compares to OEM config- You can now see all "previous" changes from original configuration of the car highlighted in the Configurator! This one has been a long time coming due to the effort required to do it. But now, we have done it. You can filter only the changes from OEM as well as compare the current config of the car to the OEM configuration settings using the "Show OEM" checkbox added. Note that this display, just as Restore OEM, does NOT require any stored backup of information about the car, the "OEM" config settings are always the correct original config displayed.

New DTC Detail notes added to DTC dialog - You can now click on any code read from the car in the DTC Report dialog to open expanded notes about the specific code, a very helpful addition for troubleshooting from DTCs.

New DTC History - DTC report now has a "Show Historical Data" checkbox to bring up the previous DTCs read from the car that have been subsequently cleared.


Updated Features:

Updates to Software reloads module- Expanded reload scenarios are now possible for replaced/new modules in more complex installs such as ECM replacement.


Improvements and Fixes:

Improved Config files download - This is not specifically a code update in OrBit but includes back end updates to implement a CDN to improve the speed of downloading updated config files around the world, on start up of OrBit. Recovery when config files are corrupt or missing has been improved.

Various bug fixes and reliability improvments- The catch all, just like Volvo release notes. Many small bugs found and fixed.
