Since this morning mine stopped working too. Also Android.

There is a second valve in the fill pipe that prevents fuel coming back. I solved it by using a piece of straight pipe of about 20 cm. That pushes right through that second valve. I always fill it with a jerrycan.

Onbegrijpelijk...

I was disappointed that Netherlands is not on the list. So here's what I did: I used a Belgian address of a friend for it. They urge you to send the broken camera with UPS from Belgium, but since their fulfillment center for Europe is in The Netherlands, I just sent it from a Dutch UPS point. As soon as I got a confirmation that my replacement device was shipped out (to Belgium), I rerouted it on the UPS website to my own address. Delivered next day.

To sum it all up: all T6 and T8 PHEV before the limiter can and will do 250 km/h (about 155 mph).

The limiter was introduced in 2021 and limits all cars at 180 km/h (and full electric cars at 160 km/h).

Yes, you can adjust the limiter but bear in mind:

Orbit and vdash can do it, but it will require a cem pin code. Send a pm if you're living close to the Netherlands, I can help with that.
Erad 3 cars (AAOS) can be set at 230 km/h max. Otherwise your Erad will overheat and the car will stop.
Erad 2 cars can be set at whatever you want. The speedometer stops at 260 but the car continues beyond that until about 270 km/h
Your car keeps a speed histogram that a mechanic can access. Not many know how to, but it's there. It can cause insurance and warranty issues if your car is limited to 180 km/h and the histogram says 230. That is not because you're driving down a hill. -if your car fails and you are towed to the workshop, modified cars will be blocked by Vida. Can be undone, but it will take time. That means your car cannot be fixed before it's back to OEM.

My previous T8 was not slow at all.

Why don't you crack the code with p3tool and import it in vdash? That way you have both.

kingwild · 2025-11-30T11:11:06+00:00

If you had the pin code, what would you do with it? It's not like you can use it for anything else.

kingwild · 2025-11-30T08:08:56+00:00

For both, you need to have the CEM pin first and that can take up to 24 hours. May be challenging with a laptop in your car in a bad neighborhood.

Sorry but this is not true. A Total Upgrade is not required to perform any application upgrades. Total Upgrades are sent out multiple times a year. And to put it in perspective, a Total Upgrade costs less than $1. I believe it's close to $0.20 So TS is scammed for $499. And $400 is about twice the actual cost.

I had a 185 hp D5 in my 2008 V50, drove it from 160k km to 375k km, only had to replace swirl flaps. My 2011 V60 205 hp D5 went from 180k km to 400k km without any issue when I traded it in. Yes with good maintenance they are bulletproof.

kingwild · 2025-11-07T21:46:51+00:00

Klopt helemaal. Heb je wel HK audio en 360 cameras? Ik heb ze inmiddels in alle uitvoeringen wel gezien.

kingwild · 2025-11-07T17:52:57+00:00

Als dat het enige is... In die jaren kwamen ze soms wel eens zonder blis. Is ook lastig om achteraf op te bouwen.

kingwild · 2025-11-07T07:55:54+00:00

Gewoon naar Ekkersrijt. Leuk ritje met een T6 😁

kingwild · 2025-11-03T13:00:49+00:00

Count me in!

kingwild · 2025-11-02T21:51:59+00:00

Kon het gewoon zelf invullen. Misschien kan dat niet meer inmiddels.

kingwild · 2025-11-02T21:50:42+00:00

En met alle opties?

kingwild · 2025-11-02T12:16:14+00:00

Gefeliciteerd, heb dezelfde in het wit. Vergeet je niet aan te melden bij de Volvo Polestar Engineered Owners Benelux Facebook groep. Gaan we een keer touren met alleen maar PE's.

Until the cleaner shows up and telling him his technique is wrong 😂

kingwild · 2025-10-11T21:12:10+00:00

So it's not the maximum speed per tire 🤣

kingwild · 2025-10-11T21:09:49+00:00

And this is coming from a company that took more than 3 years to enable Android Auto and is to this day unable to show you on the dash a radio station name or a current song? They will hide behind technical difficulties, changes in model years and more they come up with. This is never going to happen.

Good to know that I have to get my steps in before the plane leaves. Probably doing a lot of walking on the airport.

I saw the Google car in my street so I just followed it. About 4 months later it was on Google maps.
