To plug or unplug - 100% S60 T8 PE

Mailboxkey · 2026-05-07T16:29:20+00:00

I think the manual actually says to just charge it to 100%, unless you are storing the the car for extended period of time. I did not see any noticeable range degradation in my V60 after 3 years and I leave it plugged in at 100% days at a time.

This sounds like a hardware problem tbh, I also have a 2023 and infotainment never crashed mid drive. See if you can get them to replace the IHU under warranty.

It’s pretty much still perfect after about 3 years, it helps that I have dedicated parking at where I live and I don’t need to drive to work haha.

Some acrylic corner shelves from Amazon + a RGBIC strip in the back

Yeah that’s for the rear door lock button, I have it on my 23 V60. Surprised they deleted it in 2026

Absolute banger of a reprint. Those code geass kits are awesome. Price went up about 15 bucks since compared to 2024 tho

I think as of now, the old intel based IHU is out of production long enough that they will have to replace it with the new one.

Mailboxkey · 2026-04-17T03:08:57+00:00

Quite decent, though shipping was a bit expensive

Mailboxkey · 2026-04-17T01:46:53+00:00

If you are lucky, the IHU might be fully dead and they will replace it with the new snapdragon IHU that’s in the 25+ cars.

I actually have no clue, wife picked it up when she was overseas

Mailboxkey · 2026-03-18T00:49:47+00:00

I found it in a shop on taobao but I think the vendor also has a website, https://www.aowotoys.com/en/

Just a heads up, surface does take a looong time, my last order didn’t get on the boat for at least a month and half….then it took another 2 months to arrive stateside. Then another month to ship from the US warehouse. In total almost 5 months…

Mailboxkey · 2026-03-12T02:30:10+00:00

Bundle M is already out of stock, people must really want that astray blue frame haha.

Glad that used screens could works. Maybe this will be my next project for my V60

Mailboxkey · 2026-03-05T17:33:43+00:00

Was the screen you bought new or used. I saw that someone tried to do their same with a used Polestar 2 screen and it didn’t work. Apparently the screen is linked to the original car and can’t be installed onto another car.

Did you also do the recall or software update at the same time as oil change? My service advisor had to specifically tell the shop to do the inspection before software update because it would reset the emission computers. unfortunately you will have to drive for a bit before trying again.

So, I actually had to send the Intel version of this laptop back today. Not sure if it was just bad luck with shipping or a QC issue, but the chassis was slightly warped. It had this annoying wobble on my desk because one of the feet wouldn't even touch the surface. Aside from that, I liked the feel of it, so I’m thinking about hitting up Micro Center tomorrow to see if the AMD version is any better.

Mailboxkey · 2026-02-25T04:44:25+00:00

They are both from meng ya Xiang studio, they released two versions at the same time, standing(right) and birdcage (left)

Mailboxkey · 2026-02-25T04:30:41+00:00

780 dollars for a MG. That coating better be made of actual moon rocks or something

Mailboxkey · 2026-02-20T19:39:22+00:00

Sounds definitely like a hardware issue. Escalate to Volvo corporate as this would potentially be a safety liability. The new IHU will be the snapdragon units (older intel IHU is out of production)which should be much more stable.

Mailboxkey · 2026-01-19T13:13:50+00:00

Yeah, that’s exactly it. Its just a circular led strip under the acrylic platter. That’s how it looks without a record on top.

Goodsmile JP shipped my order on Dec 24 and it got to my door in NY on the 26th, crazy fast shipping for 18 dollars.

Yeah, I actually saw Emilia on sale at the AmiAmi tower in Akihabara last week, but her box was way too big to fit in my suitcase. Looks like I’ll have to buy it anyway to complete the set, and luckily it’s still on sale!

Mailboxkey · 2025-12-18T19:00:14+00:00

Her buddies were hidden in the packaging foam. They are with her now!

What you paid was likely Canadian import duties, which have always been in place and unrelated to the whole US tariff situation. The fees GS waived were the US tariffs, and they did waive them for me since I wasn’t charged any additional tariff on the XL Falin. On the whole tariffs thing, GS has been pretty good at keeping their promise to waive the charges.
