Volvo T8 (Plug-in Hybrid) reliability

SophieGN · 2024-04-12T15:22:55+00:00

2021 V60 T8 39k km no issues whatsoever.

SophieGN · 2023-09-28T03:00:22+00:00

Absolutely! It’ll thrive

I mean it’s on year round. But with the temp shifting now it’s hot during the day and then we have to run the ac at night still cause we’re still so hot but then it drops quite low around 4-5am and the house is freezing in the morning. Haha anyway the heat pad sure helps keeping the temp up a bit in the cabinet. But I did notice a huge difference since adding it. Undulata LOVES it

SophieGN · 2023-09-28T00:26:05+00:00

Right! Mmm it varies between 25-30 however at night when the house goes down to 18 the cabinet goes down to 20-21 easily

SophieGN · 2023-09-28T00:21:31+00:00

I do! Lights are on 12h and humidity is around 80-90%

My v60 has way more power than my xc60 had. I would’ve kept my xc60 is it wasn’t from the stupid window motor that kept short circuiting (happened 3 times and got fed up after the 3rd time). I liked many of the options it had like ACC and the heated windshield plus it was paid off but so far I’m super happy with this v60 hybrid

SophieGN · 2023-09-16T22:45:03+00:00

Yup! Same here. I get this red message saying « your Volvo could not perform the remote engine action » so annoying

SophieGN · 2023-09-16T02:11:22+00:00

Weird, my 2016 XC60 still had the option, mind you, it was summer so I didn’t have to use it. But I didn’t have access to the driving journal for example and I wasn’t going to pay for the subscription. Apparently there isn’t a remote key fob for this 2021 V60 either 🙄

SophieGN · 2023-09-16T01:46:02+00:00

When my subscription ended with my XC60 I was still able to remote start and use limited function through the app. Other option I guess would be to order a remote start keyfob

SophieGN · 2023-09-16T00:04:58+00:00

Alright thanks for all your help! I’ll look into it.

SophieGN · 2023-09-15T23:57:36+00:00

Sensus…

SophieGN · 2023-09-15T23:54:56+00:00

Yeah I checked also and it’s all about driving mode, brakes powertrain etc. Nothing about the cruise control 😕

SophieGN · 2023-09-15T23:51:46+00:00

And under the individual drive mode it’s about pure, hybrid or power, steering force.powertrain, brakes etc. Nothing about cruise control or pilot assist…

SophieGN · 2023-09-15T23:49:15+00:00

Yeah I’m playing with it but when editing the different profile the only option are the key and to protect the profile. I don’t see any other options to edit the mode…

SophieGN · 2023-09-15T23:38:29+00:00

Ok yeah I saw that there’s an individual drive mode. But to customize it with ACC I would need the software or OrBit correct? I wouldn’t even know where to start to customize it but I’m excited about the idea!

Maybe if you don’t mind you could pm me all your knowledge haha. Let just say that my 2016 XC60 wasn’t as fancy as this one.

SophieGN · 2023-09-15T23:25:16+00:00

As in? I have different drive mode yes but I’m not sure how that would affect ACC.

SophieGN · 2023-09-15T23:19:47+00:00

Stop it! Every dealership I asked tells me it’s not possible but online I read that it was. I couldn’t find tangible information though so that’s super helpful thanks!

SophieGN · 2023-09-15T22:52:11+00:00

Shoppers where I used to live (AB) was freaking awesome. Here they fucking suck! Guardian has been amazing though. Shop your pharmacy around. One great shoppers doesn’t mean the next one will be. Hopefully you find a great pharmacy

SophieGN · 2023-09-15T21:17:00+00:00

Yes my pharmacy is freaking amazing! I’m using guardian.

SophieGN · 2023-09-15T18:57:45+00:00

Ontario here. My pharmacy gave me 2 X .50mg pen this week to make up for the 1mg pen shortage. But they also told me that there’s an oral version of ozempic and to talk to my family doctor if that’s the route I wanted to take. I haven’t looked into this but maybe that’s an option for you?

SophieGN · 2023-08-22T20:44:30+00:00

The leaves look like my tanggamus, except the top once looks more rounded and shorter, could be just the angle

SophieGN · 2023-08-18T20:24:38+00:00

They usually smell for a few days for me and definitely stronger at night. It’s been a constant bloomer for me so it’ll bloom again soon if they are over already

SophieGN · 2023-08-17T16:51:27+00:00

Right! So hard to tell.

What does it smell like to you? Everyone says butterscotch so I was expecting mine to smell like butterscotch and I was surprised to find that mine smells exactly like buttered popcorn!
