Hi,

is there any reason why I cannot post anything under Retrofitting?
I am registrated, is there anything else?

That is what I get:

Hello everyone,

I hope you’re all doing well! I’m planning to (maybe) order a new Volvo soon, and I’ve read that support for the 2025 model year is currently in the works. I would love to get an update on the status of this development, as it’s crucial for me to know that Orbit support will be available when I receive the new car.

The ability to use Orbit is a big factor in my decision, so any insights or information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, and keep up the fantastic work! Your dedication to enhancing our driving experience is truly appreciated 

I installed a new battery on my 2017 Volvo XC90 T6. It originally came with the H7 800CCA 80Ah battery, but I went with the Costco Interstate H8 900CCA 95Ah battery.

I initiated the battery days in service reset and I was planning to change the 030 BATTERY config setting as well. However, I don't see an config setting that exactly match the new battery specs.

The only relevant ones are 'H8 AGM 92Ah 850CCA' and 'H8 AGM Exide 95Ah 850CCA'. The latter option has the 95Ah which matches the Costco battery, but both CCAs don't match with the Costco one. Which option should I select?

Thanks!

Hi im about to retrofit HUD into my v90 t8 my18. i have recived all the parts as is folowing

And if someone have the correct wiring diagram for volvo v90 t8 my18 the whold also help. i only have acces to volvo 2024 wiring diagram and it might not be correct to my car.

2022 Polestar 2 Plus and Performance
Using Orbit since December 2023, activated pilot assist/ACC and pixel headlights with no issue. Have done a couple of OTAs since then no problem (but realized after one OTA that it you don't revert to OEM first the update might bork the propulsion system and regenerative braking, presumably because of the mismatch in ACC configuration). 

Missed the last OTA (from 2.14 -> 3) because when I got the cloud notification I reverted to OEM on Orbit before applying the update and the notification went away. I finally made an appointment to get into the Volvo dealership to do the update in the shop. The software flash went fine but then when I went to plug in the car afterward (it wasn't plugged in during the software flashing) the car wouldn't charge. The light on the charging cable was still flashing white, so it didn't seem to be a cable fault. I toggled the charging schedule off and back on, and also tried using the 110V pigtail connector in a normal outlet. Same thing-- the car showed the yellow light and was stuck on "initializing charging" and the app showed "plugged in no power". The car did charge at a DCFC station at 50kw. Based on my preliminary experiments it seemed like it might be either a faulty charging cable or an onboard charger issue, because charging didn't work with multiple power outlets.

I brought it to the Volvo dealer for the scheduled service appointment for the software update and told them about the charging issue. Gave them my charging cable as well. When I checked the app last night (while the car was still at the dealership) the software had been updated and the car plugged in and fully charged--the app now also has the capability of setting the charge limit. 

They told me today that they checked everything and there was no issue with the OBC or the cable. So I'm not sure what happened. Did flashing the software back to OEM have anything to do with the car's inability to charge, and did the new software update restore it? More importantly, can I reflash the previous mods (pixel and ACC/PA) without fear that this might happen again? Could the changes in the app charging protocol have had something to do with the breaking or restoration of the charging functions? Has this happened to anyone else?

TL; DR: using Orbit to revert to OEM may have borked my car's charger, and updating to the latest Polestar software may have restored it. Possible or just a coincidence? 

Hi!

I would like to remap my xc90 and get the better transmission from Orbit Polestar Engineered.
Which one should I start with?
I guess the ECU remapping goes first.

Thx

Hello,
I've noticed that some companies offer to reprogram US/Canada tail lights so that they blink in amber. Does anyone know how they achieve this? Are they physically replacing the LEDs, or is it just a software modification with OrBIT?

Hello, do you know of a site or software that allows you to find the part numbers for your vehicle ?

A bit like Etka at VAG. I'm looking for the Yurbo hoses that are pierced on the D4 190hp diesel engine, I would like to do them as a precaution because when changing the oil I noticed that it was greasy and when accelerating I hear a little whistling that wasn't there before, it may be due to a start ?

Thanks you.

FYI for you folks with T8s - there's a known issue with key programming where the SRS system causes radio interference that makes it impossible to program new keys. I banged my head against the wall for quite some time being unable to program keys until some kind soul on Swedespeed pointed me in the direction of the following TJ:

Once the fuses in question were removed, the keys programmed easily. I hope this helps someone struggling with this like I did.

Hi, I was wondering if its possible to configure the door mirror tilt on reverse function.
As I understand it this feature was factory enabled where memory seats are fitted.
I don't have memory seats.
Thanks.
