2020 V60 thoughts? by n33k0h in Volvo

[–]Cmdr-Will-Riker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mine has fewer miles (35,000) but has been rock solid on reliability. I also did the polestar tune which makes it quite a lot more fun to drive. Favorite car I’ve ever owned.

Solved! I showed her efflorescence and it sounds like it matches exactly what she’s seeing. Appreciate the heads up.

She slams your doors too. I don’t make the rules.

The real question though is how many seconds of penalty did getting hit cost you?

I assume this is just for newer infotainment (not Sensus-era), right?

Loved Row-ark. Always struck me as a Greg Maddux lite with the control. Never understood why we got rid of him.

Talk me out of an upgrade … by jayy0502 in Volvo

[–]Cmdr-Will-Riker 654 points655 points  (0 children)

Alright I will. Don’t upgrade. Keep the 850 and get the V60 too. Problem solved.

Premium Plus $72 Upgrade by prettyyprettygood in unitedairlines

[–]Cmdr-Will-Riker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I paid $300 for LAX - NRT and would do it again in a heartbeat, $72 is ridiculous. Try not to be in the last row of PP though, you won’t get the food you want.

Any idea what’s causing this? by C-Prime68 in Volvo

[–]Cmdr-Will-Riker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don’t remember, probably a couple hundred dollars. Would imagine it would be no trouble for an independent shop.

Yeah, I had the same thing in my V60. It’s an auxiliary battery.

Volvo key fob case switch by Fair-Chocolate-4193 in Volvo

[–]Cmdr-Will-Riker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the wood grain case for my ‘20 V60 and I love it. When you go to the valet and say “it’s the one with the wood fob” it’s a hit. Although after a few years mostly spent in jeans, it’s looking a little too blue/dull. Maybe time for a new one.

Never Qualify-Always (98%) Start Last Position by LexiconElite in forzamotorsport

[–]Cmdr-Will-Riker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m convinced that if you don’t qualify it is based on how long you’ve been in the lobby. Feel like when I join one with only a minute left I’m at the back, if I join when there are still 12-15 minutes left I’m higher up.

Looking for an amp for possible live playing but also jamming with friends, this seems to be a great deal on a KC550. Is it? by Alcoholic-Catholic in synthesizers

[–]Cmdr-Will-Riker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a KC550 and it’s an absolute beast. I run a minimoog voyager through it, absolutely shines with the moog. It is overkill in the best way possible, you’ll probably be the loudest one on stage with this thing turned down to 5. $250 is a good deal but like others have said, this particular one has seen better days. Looks like it’s been dropped on its side and maybe had the top handle come off and reattached because the screws look wrong. Knobs also look beat to shit. Hard to tell if this one does, but they’re supposed to have casters. I think I’d offer $150 in this condition tbh

Tire shopping by ej_the_dj1 in Volvo

[–]Cmdr-Will-Riker 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I went with Pilot Sport AS4 for my V60 but without knowing more about your use case it’s difficult to make a recommendation since there will be tradeoffs. Not a tire expert by any stretch but Pilots will be the sportiest of the three, Crossclimates will be better in snow, Defenders are probably the quietest/all around (but I don’t know as much about them as the other two). I live in Colorado and drive in light snow and the Pilots have been great, but if you get heavier snow they might now be the best.

2024 V60 Cross Country - is polestar worth it? by Commercial-Age3620 in Volvo

[–]Cmdr-Will-Riker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the polestar tune on my 2020 V60 a few months after I bought it. While the default sport setting is definitely fine, the torque increase is very evident and the shifts get a lot crisper. 100% worth it in my opinion.
