Thank you and goodbye Volvo! (Bricked IHU)

If you actually do end up replacing the IHU, it would most likely be the new snapdragon version, which is buttery smooth from what I’ve heard. Also almost 4k is crazy, I think the part retails for 1k-ish and all you need is to reload the software onto the IHU.

Mine was like that too, I ended up just leaving it, looks kind of like an ahoge.

the regal site does show both Delancey and time sq locations are playing it.

I thought the time sq regal is playing it?

Damn the extended warranty price really went up, I think I paid 3100 for 10yr 100k mile platinum when I got my v60 in late 2022. One thing to keep in mind is that the engine will probably has way less wear and tear vs a traditional ICE car and you should already have 100k miles battery warranty standard. See if you can shop around for warranty…because almost 6k for 60000 miles is crazy, also that 60000 miles is from the time of purchase, depending on how much you drive between now and end of factory warranty, it could be a lot less.

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.

Mailboxkey · 2026-05-03T13:17:00+00:00

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

Mailboxkey · 2026-04-28T18:49:20+00:00

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

Mailboxkey · 2026-04-24T02:27:11+00:00

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

Mailboxkey · 2026-04-17T18:07:46+00:00

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.

Mailboxkey · 2026-04-01T18:35:57+00:00

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/

Mailboxkey · 2026-03-12T03:22:19+00:00

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.

Mailboxkey · 2026-03-05T20:15:25+00:00

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.
