I have no experience in modifying cars, but I had to do the following in my Volvo S60 gen. 3 2019 T8:

1) Changed the headlights from USA to EU. All headlight functions work, but they still operate in the USA mode. Which really shines in the eyes of the drivers opposite.
I need to switch the headlights to EU mode.

2) I need to make a second key for the car, is it possible to make a remote engine start from the key? Does this require a specific version of the key?

3) Remove speed limit from 130 mph.

4) Activate some functions of the car that did not require the addition of any spare parts.

5) Run the hybrid cooling pump service mode (I need to replace pump)


Will any action be visible when connecting to VIDA? Will the car get banned with such changes? Will it be updated to factory settings when connected?
What am I risking for such changes by Orbit?

Thanks for your help.

Regards

1) There is no difference in the operation mode when switching between US / EU while the headlight itself is still a US model.  You will get DTCs if you switch the config.  The only kind of an operation difference is "remembering last state of the auto high beam switch" if you select RAW headlight type. 


2) Although some folks here has reported that "remote start from fob" works,  it does not for most of us. The only way is the remote app or the Volvo developer account and use their API. But I don't know if VOLVO free DEV account requires active VOLVO on CALL subscription. 

3) Yes, you can do it

4) Yes, there are many settings you can enable without additional HW,  

5) Not sure if it is even possible with an advanced ODB scanners.
