Hi 
Does anyone know if there is a parametre to increase the distance the  ACC keeps to car in front ?

I believe it is maximum 3 sec normally and it feels too close, specially when driving in less dense traffic.
Compared to VAG cars where it is ~5 sec, it feels little too close for relaxed driving.

Seems little strange choice for Volvo that used to be for safety.

Pls, lets not start an argument thread is it close or not...

Pretty sure I know the answer to this one, but has anyone with an AAOS car successfully activated the passenger seat control? I use it sometimes in our V90, and if by some crazy miracle it's possible to use it in the Polestar 2, then that would be cool. However, I'm guessing the Polestar has no way to display a UI for that functionality.

I have a 2021 Polestar 2, so it doesn't have the interior particulate sensor(s), and as a result this code line is "off"/without, which makes sense.

However, I'm wondering if I switch it on, will the car then make the app available, and will it be able to show the exterior particulate matter, which it just pulls down from the web via the cell connection.

Has anyone with a Polestar or either of the CMA Volvos successfully switched this setting to activate the Parking Assist found on some of the SPA cars that are equipped with it? Our V90 has it, and yeah, it's a bit of a party trick that we don't really use often, but when we first got the Polestar I was surprised it lacked it.

The current setting on our Polestar is "07 Parking Assistance, Semi-Automatic Parking Gen3".

Hi, Ive just had some success using orbit for the first time. I have added adaptive cruise control and start stop button memory.

I tried Polestar engineered car but didn't like the way the car was held on high revs for too long with light throttle.

One problem I have is I now occasionally get a random screen on Sensus asking for a pin, it cancels but is annoying. Any recommendations?

Thanks all.

Hi there

Newbie here.

Car - Polestar 2 (2022)
S/W version on car - 2.13.1
OBDII Connector - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MEC...UTF8&psc=1
Laptop OS - Win 10

My car is on the L2 charger (40% SoC) and I connected the OBDII connector to my laptop and tried to connect to the car. Here is the log message:

Requesting connect
Waiting for connection...
No cars found! Check cable, replug OBD connector, or check local firewall blocks OrBit from incoming connections
Error Reason: timeout
OrBit Disconnected

I had the same message come through after multiple disconnect/connects I made at the OBDII end and the laptop. I have Windows Defender (no other security software) and checked that orbitrun.exe had access to both Private and Public networks. No dice.

What could be the reasons for OrBit not being able to connect to my car? I suspect the OBDII connector, but this is what many users in the Polestar forums have recommended that works with OrBit.

Any help appreciated

Is this for an infrared or thermal camera?

Cheers!

Hello, I am wondering if there is any way to setup the Front Facing Camera to be activated while driving?

Hello!

I have a small problem and hope this is the solution
I work with aftermarket caraudio. My client has a 2023 XC60 T8, the car is equipped with a Harman/Kardon sound system with a subwoofer. The client wanted better bass so I installed a new sub box and amplifier.

It sounds great when the car is running on electricity, but when the engine starts, it thunders throughout the car and is unbearable.

Is it fake engine noise, or active noise cancellation that starts in conjunction with the engine and is played in the sub box?

Is it EASY to turn off the function? I have read that one should reset the software if the car is going for service at Volvo. Therefore, the customer must be able to reset/reactivate themselves.

Thank you 

Greetings from Finland. When the weather is nice, it's usually cold as Perkele. 

I'm facing a challenging situation with my vehicle in our extreme winter conditions. Today, the temperature dropped to a freezing -35°C (31°F). As you might be aware, the new Euro 6 emission standards restrict the use of petrol/diesel heaters for engine heating. Consequently, while the cabin gets warm, the engine does not receive adequate heat.

My vehicle uses a coolant by-pass valve (part number 31461924) to control circulation. A mechanical workaround I've considered is removing this valve and replacing it with a Y-connector, leaving the original valve plugged in the engine bay. However, I'm curious if there's a more sophisticated solution.

Is there a way to control the behaviour of this bypass valve through the vehicle's Orbit system? This control is crucial for maintaining engine health in such cold conditions. Any advice or insights from fellow members who have navigated similar issues would be greatly appreciated.
