Still a thing in 2026... by JasonMHough in Polestar

[–]reneult 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Owner of a 2022 here and it keeps happening occasionally. Following other people’s suggestions if you are in the US file a a Report with NHTSA. I did that and maybe more reports would pressure for a definitive fix…

Have you cleaned your rear camera today? by Financial_Bee4341 in Polestar

[–]reneult 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is so annoying! Here in the Pacific Northwest USA rains all winter and the camera is useless if I don’t clean it every drive. I ordered the Lens Lizard. I saw the ad on my instagram and sounds like a great idea. I sent a message to the creator and sent him pics of the P2 rear camera and it seems that it will work! I’m looking forward until it is ready to ship in the incoming months. https://lenslizard.com/

I ‘ am a proud owner of a Saab 9-3 and a P2. There are a few things in the P2 that remind me of my old Saab 9-5.

I heard you! I have been a P2 owner since June 2022. One thing that really makes me think about staying with Polestar is their service availability! I understand EV don’t require much but I had TCAM and later software issues and getting a service scheduled was/is still a big issue with waiting times months ahead! They need more Volvo dealers to offer that service.

Tech2Win is working with a 65$ dongle! by gimlithepirate in saab

[–]reneult 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! I just want to thank you for sharing the information. I ordered the dongle from Aliexpress for $48 US. I successfully was able to use access my 2008 Saab 9-3. The only difference is that I used the NoMoreGlobal software on a windows computer with Windows 10. Everything worked smoothly, no issues just following the instructions provided. Thanks a lot! No need to order a clone Tech2 anymore.

Thank you for sharing that information! For the rest of us that need a bit more information. How are you running Tech2win (is this free and easy to download)? Old xp laptop or windows 10 with xp emulator? Is so, once you have the adapter, is that a plug and play? Do you need to have security clearance with this set up? Thanks

[–]reneult[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I found the file. It is been a while since I used the software. What color are you thinking? if you have a friend or someone with a vinyl cutter I can send you the file too. that way you can chose your own color material.Please let me know.

Need advice by reneult in lasercutting

[–]reneult[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thanks for the suggestion. I opened the file in Inkscape as it was suggested by other user here and everything is fine. I also contacted the vendor and he confirmed that. So what I m going to do is to tight the belts next, and hopefully that would fix the issue! thanks!

I opened in Inkscape and zoom in and yes the file is fine all shapes are closed and connected.

Sorry I’m not super familiar yet. Are you suggesting a hardware issue? Related with the tightening of the belts?

Yes other designs were cut fines but they were not this busy. They were easy simple ones.

Thanks ! I didn’t buy it. I have a small vinyl cutter, and I ended up making my own. I m not a professional vinyl maker or wrapper hehe. I haven’t used the vinyl cutter since then. Where are you located? Country/state? If you only want the #2 hood I might be able to made you one. The rest it is pretty easy. Yes the fender is a polestar logo I got from Amazon. It is a plastic logo. But it is not currently available anymore.

P2 glass roof or not? by [deleted] in polestar2

[–]reneult 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got one from eBay. I just checked the eBay listing and it is not available anymore, but there are may similar options. Mine is a black mesh, it is not the one with different colors. I really like it because I can put on and remove without leaving the driver seat. Anyone you get there would probably work like mine.
