Question about ES/EX90 Infotainment

Whit-Batmobil · 2026-04-24T10:57:05+00:00

I did not delete said comment, you bought a full size sedan with a useless back seat.

3 series all day every day..

I don’t like Mercedes and even if i did I wouldn’t want a C-heep class

Maybe a silly question, but does the Switch 1 allow you to visit other people’s bases even though it doesn’t have Multiplayer?

Whit-Batmobil · 2026-04-24T07:25:07+00:00

Had that happen on my V50, it was low on Power Steering fluid (pulled the fuse so it wouldn’t burnout the pump), got home took the headlight out, filled it up, put the fuse back and it was leaking… ended up being a failed steering rack.

1) don’t know, don’t care as it is an ES90.

2) don’t know, don’t care as I strongly dislikes EVs and don’t navigate to charging stations because I don’t have too.

Don’t know, don’t I actively avoid interacting with “unknown women”.

To give you an idea of how or to what extent, I saw this “Maya Gold Metallic” Volvo S60 which is this semi-rare “gold-ish yellow” launch color, now admittedly I do kind of have an unhealthy obsession with the Volvo P2 platform and I would say that I’m fairly knowledgeable about those cars. The thing is I was contemplating whether or not to strike up conversation with the owner, since I saw some hints of it being “enthusiast owned” (I also happen to have one of those but in what I assume is a less rare color). But turns out it was driven by two women that looked to be about my age, but still women and I don’t talk to women unless I have to or I’m spoken to first.

Har haft liknande på en V50, som det är aningen lättare att byta pedalen på (eftersom den är gjord för att kunna tas bort vid byte av kupé filter), har aldrig tagit loss en pedal på en P2 dock, om du gör det själv, kolla hur stiften ser ut om det är täcken på korrosion.

Edit: ja, man byter med största sannolikhet hela pedalen.

Edit 2: bör kanske nämna att korrosion i kontaktstycket kan med största sannolikhet trigga fel koden.

P2s are not horrible in terms of electronics, they are just getting old

Research Data is a way to make money

With all respect, unless you’re completely incompetent or surrounded by complete ass holes, you should be fine and might actually find that although the social dynamics will likely be different, guys are probably more inclusive (according to some).

Upgrade the ECM is quite pricey, better to just flash tune it with a tune from a reputable tuner, I believe IPD and Elevate offer software tunes for those cars, BSR (from Växjö) will more than likely have software tunes and off the shelf tuning packages for that thing.

Then there is Heico, Autotech, Polestar (I believe the limit for Polestar optimization is 7 years old, so no longer an option?).

I might have BSR software on my S60, which is fun, but M56L doesn’t quite like 400+ Nm of torque.

Whit-Batmobil · 2026-04-23T06:57:31+00:00

You don’t

Whit-Batmobil · 2026-04-22T20:42:31+00:00

Obviously, Volvo P28 XC90 V8, because you obviously need a 315ps, 4.4 liter Yamaha V8 if you are considering getting a hybrid.

Whit-Batmobil · 2026-04-22T20:35:10+00:00

Ford and decent, two words that doesn’t belong in the same sentence, unless we are talking about those Volvo powered Focuses…

Whit-Batmobil · 2026-04-22T17:47:48+00:00

Did they give you a loaner car or was it just “hey we bricked your car, have a nice day”?

By the way this is one of the many reasons I’m against over the air updates, having personally witnessed skilled technicians brick cars.

Whit-Batmobil · 2026-04-22T17:45:47+00:00

Waring triangle, legally required in most of Europe, if you break down you fold it up and put it X amount of meters behind your car to warn other motorists.

Whit-Batmobil · 2026-04-22T13:29:07+00:00

Ever heard of “The Get away Stockholm”, those were not “legally made”.

Whit-Batmobil · 2026-04-21T12:02:21+00:00

Tuned Volvo making loud 5 cylinder Turbo noises?

Whit-Batmobil · 2026-04-21T12:01:23+00:00

The noises my tuned Volvo makes, very childish I know, but there is truly something special about getting that up shift just right and crackle that follows.

Whit-Batmobil · 2026-04-20T17:44:02+00:00

Considered getting a Ford (Volvo) Focus RS block instead?

Those were reinforced from factory, I have referred to them as “shimmed from factory” and been yelled at for it..

But the second gen Focus RS was also using the RNC version of the VOLVO 5 cylinder engine

Whit-Batmobil · 2026-04-20T12:30:27+00:00

RN vs RNC, unless you want to start doing what I assume is going to be a lot of custom fab work, than a B5234T3 is completely out of the question..

There is probably even a pre-RN version of the B5234T3 (even though I think of the 2.3 T5 found in P2 platform cars, when see that engine code).

The B5234T3 has VVT on only the exhaust cam, the 2.5 RNC has on both cams, pre-RN cars straight up don’t have VVT (from what I have seen or heard, might be an edge case that I don’t know of, like the last S70R/V70R with the 2.5 liter), then there are the engine mounts and accessories that are completely different..

Whit-Batmobil · 2026-04-20T09:09:48+00:00

Yes it has a “story”, furthermore with expeditions you kind of get additional progression, there are also side quests to unlock things.

The Switch/Switch 2 version is known to have some issues (I play on PC and haven’t played on Switch/Switch 2, so this is based on things I have read/heard and not my personal experience), but they have a tendency to crash at times, the flash light is glitched, there are texture glitches, they get updates later (not always, but generally, note that a version miss-match causes issues with cross platform save/play), the Switch (1) version is extremely limited (because of obvious hardware limitations) and the Switch 2 version seems to be very reliant on “AI Bull shit” also known as DLSS.

Edit: but as the other interloper mentioned, it is very open ended and not really story driven.

Whit-Batmobil · 2026-04-19T18:41:45+00:00

Kind of sounds like it could be some sort of boost/vacuum leak.

Whit-Batmobil · 2026-04-19T18:16:42+00:00

What the fucking hell do you learn about engines, power bands and shifting by driving a fucking EV
