I just migrated my rather smallish Apple HomeKit setup to a new device (raspberry pi) and it has advanced leaps and bounds past where it was when I last set up a server.

Now there’s a web interface for setup, almost everything is automated, and….. there’s a VolvoCars plugin.

It takes the credentials from your login for the app and then gives you control over it in HomeKit.

So, for example, I can set an automation to make sure my car is locked at night.

But even better, instead of having to open the app and authenticate and navigate to the engine start page, or find the app on my watch and swipe to the remote start tile, I can just say:

“Hey Siri, start My Volvo”.

And it starts.

Does this functionality work for your car?

I have the standard (Premium audio system 10 instances) XC90 D4
Do I need an extra module?

Soooo interesting turn of events. I did finally test out the removed speed limit and a subtle turn of events is that the way the car used to fall on its face around 100 mph it doesn't anymore. I have some performance upgrades and run an E50 blend (the car automatically calibrates for ethanol fuel blends up to around E40 without any angry side effects. 

Over that, with boost around the old S60 polestar (the driveE one) the car runs out of fuelling and coughs on shifts at anything over 3/4 throttle. 

Anyway. I digress... 

The car no longer falls on its face past 100. With my mods I'm around as quick as the scatpack chargers and challengers at that speed and it keeps pulling. Got out of it at 142 mph and it was still climbing quickly. Don't really want to go faster than that until I get it to the shifts3ctor half mile event. 

So in summation, all the hacks work lol.

Hi, is it possible with this software to make daytime running lights to stay on even when the light stalk (light switch shift) is in off position but vehicle engine is started or car is put in Drive Mode?

Also can the vehicle be set to remote start with this on the key fob, making not require the app subscription?

Also if there is a link for the cable recommended to use with 2021 XC90 Plug in hybrid (PHEV)?

Thanks

 Hi there

My old laptop gave up the ghost a few weeks ago. Now I could take over a nice used MacBook, but that doesn't work with OrBit, no Windows but MacOS installed. So today I created a second partition on the MacBook and installed Windows10 on it. Downloaded and installed OrBit again without any problem. It works fine and fast now. The only thing is that a MacBook doesn't have an ethernet connection, at least mine doesn't have. So I had to buy a Thunderbolt to Ethernet transition cable. So it can be done. Might be useful for others to know.

Hi there!

C40 owner here and unfortunately my car only came with rear parking sensors.

I've been trying to gather information on what I would need to perform a retrofit to enable the front sensors!

I noticed I have blanks on the front bumper and will need a total of 6 sensors. I will need to drill the 2 side ones.

Can anyone chime in if they've done this sort of retrofit before?

I assume this should apply to all CMA platform cars (Polestar 2, XC40 Recharge, XC40)

Mainly:

• would I need another PDC module?
  
• does any one know if the harness has the connections already?
  
• part numbers for sensors and harnesses show a VP06 or VP07 variant... not sure how I can determine which one I have?
  

I found a good used R-Design heated steering wheel for sale. I already have the heated one. I just want to have the shifting pedals which only R-Design has. 
Has anyone tried to retrofit R-Design steering wheel gear shifting pedals and enable those via Orbit?

Hi there!

Anyone tried to remove Volvo On Call? 077 ASSISTANCE SERVICES -> 01 Without Assistance Services does not help. Annoying message "Volvo On Call Service Required" does not let to live happily...  Car XC60 2019 USA, reverted to EU and VOC is unnecessary
