On every car that I have ever remapped, the remap has given me more power when needed, better drive ability, and better mpg when driving considerately. I had a BSR map on my old XC90 D5 which I was a little disappointed with at first, but I found a pressure leak on the engine, which when fixed sorted it! I think you'll see all of this on the XC70 and I can't wait to see your review video! Keep up the great work and that's one of the best presents you could give yourself!!!
Hello .. I have the Volvo xc70 2013 with everyting on it, plus the Polestar upgrade 330hp .. The car is more aggressive. acceleration and gearing has a faster response... I love this car .. Cheers From Norway and Happy birthday fellow volvo entusiast
I added Polestar to my 2018 S90 and the difference was so noticeable and, as other people say, it is like another car. Couldn't imagine it without it now.
Graeme Barrie I agree, I had it done today and when I left the dealer I was amazed at the difference, it is insane! Insanely better! The badge they put on is the new design though, the white one that says Polestar Engineered
I have XC70 T6 Polestar from new.. It has the 329bhp and absurd torque..it humiliates cars that find it perplexing. BMW M3 diesel.. Audi RS3.. hilarious... not a 'handling' racey thing like theirs. but the electronic stability control and silly 'go' make it brutal. It especially upsets them if it happens with a car full of stuff.... as the thing doesn't seem to care a lot about being laden. It is stupid rare here in the UK.. 26 only of my model year.. so I LOVE all your stuff about yours. I have the side skirts, too.. and bought the under-engine aluminium skid pan/protector. I covet your decal ..and that module you added to the rear tailgate.
I did it in 2nd year of owning my V70 T6 AWD. Day after I was driving about 1500 km and ...it was really another car!! Something like loosing the 20% of the weight. Definitely it was worth it.
Cool! I would be interested to watch your review on the Volvo XC90. Due to the low emissions zone soon to be introduced to London I will have to upgrade my V70 D5 to a newer model and have thought of the XC90 D5 2.0 diesel.
I didn't realize this was possible. I thought you had to buy a Polestar from the factory. Anyway I personally would not do this to my 2007 XC70 because I like it the way it is. I've owned a few Volvos over the years and the one I'm driving is the best cat I've owned. I think your videos are really well done and educational for Volvo owners. Thanks.
I would! If you dont like it you can get a refund. I was actually looking at both XC70s P2 and P3 but ended up finding P3 in better shape. I love the P2 XC70. It's still not behind in style, comfort or features.
If I get this 2013 t6 Platinum that I'm considering getting I'm definitely going to do the Polstar It is expensive but I think it's a really cool add-on
My P2 XC70 wasn't Polestared. But it was chip tuned by another tuner. Even that, there's no way i can go back and drive the factory tuning anymore. I don't understand why Volvo is so modest in their factory setting when the engine clearly can take so much more power. At Stage 1 tuning, I got from 195hp to 280hp. The improvement is night and day. The cost is very low. It has potential to get up to 350 if I get it tuned to Stage 3 with some engine parts upgrade. I'm sure you will love the new Polestared XC70. I can't wait till March.......O wait! That's tomorrow!
Keep it! I got a v60cc and in the beginning i didn't feel so much of the performance until i tried a non polestar. And make sure to turn antispin off for full effect😎 greetings from sweden🤠
I actually want for my wife V60 CC t replace our aging Suzuki SX4. Here in Canada the V60CC comes only in T5 which does not get the ability to Polestar it. Only V60 T6. I am talking about not the latest V60 CC. Hello from cold Canada.
Hello, I have a 2005 Volvo XC-90 V8 with a 130000 km and I am doing all the servicing using your videos which are very helpful and as an airline pilot I have a sharp eye for meticulous work. I want to do the transmission flush however I do not have VIDA DICE. Where do you get one, and what computer are you using to run the software for the counter reset? Where are you buying your genuine Volvo parts? I live in Europe. Last but not least with 130k do you recommend fill and drain method or flushing via the transmission cooler return line. Thanks in advance for your reply.
Hello! First is respect to the job you are doing. I mean it! Vida Dice is available t purchase on Ebay. It will install on Win 7. All parts I buy either at my Volvo dealer or other online websites like ipdusa.com rockauto.com eeuroparts.com fcpeuro.com The best would be to flush via the transmission cooler line. Good luck!
@@volvosweden Thanks for the quick reply. If you wish you can PM an email address that way if I have other questions I can ask you directly there. A lot of my components on my Volvo are the same as yours, saves me the haslte of reading countless forums to see who is doing it right. Thanks in advance. Ayrton ps: if you want to see it its under Scotty Kilmers channel Car vs Car, best daily driver.
hi. i did just optimize my car ,and wow.. the difference. one question , did you get the owners package from your dealer ? regards fellow Polestar and Volvo enthusiast from norway.
The shifting will be so much better! I guess you did not put on the badge yet? My mileage did not change, same... Have fun, we all know nobody ever downgraded from Polestar. Like it how you react to the XC90 and saying the XC70 is still a good car. Sooo true!
Just go to a 3-party optimizer and you save a lot of money. In sweden i got BSR own module to flash the software with so i can remove it if I want to. Cost me 600$
I have a XC70 (2012 MY) from new and have thought about Polestar, but the cost has always put me off and more so since it doesn’t do anything for the MPG; plus it could also increase my insurance premium. So I’m very interested in your full review. Also love your interior lights upgrade, would love that on my car.....do you have a rear parking camera, I have a slight issue with my camera and was wondering if you have the same issue.
Hi-great Job well done fellow Canuck , I have a 2012 s60 T6 R design with the polestar tune from the factory and it didn’t come with the blue polestar badge in the back . I ordered one from China but I was wondering can you possibly sell me the alignment tool I see to place the badge properly ? Much appreciated please let me know , thanks
Your XC70 is well nicer than that big box XC90. All the 90 series cars are too big bodied, bulky and ugly IMO. The new 60 series is very attractive looking and big! I predict the big sellers being the XC60, V60 and S60. I’m buying a new V60 Cross Country (in my sleep 💤). The best safety feature of a Volvo is the ‘driver’. I hope you enjoy 😉 your Polestar upgrade!

Yes. Reacts to your input faster. I have a friend with XC70 D4 and he did polestar. He was happy with the upgrade. Ask the dealer if they can give you 30 days to return it.
Happy birthday 🎊
Keep the polestar 👌🏼

Thx!
@@volvosweden Agree with Stefan. Ive had my upgraded XC60 T6 for 3 years now and it was well invested money. Greetings from Gothenburg Sweden!
Happy birthday. I am sure you will keep it. Most Volvo owners love the polestar optimization and I am sure you will too. Can't wait for your review.
Thx!
If it has been years of consideration, please keep the package.
Also Volvo should sponsor you =)
They should!

Make sure the dealer programs the transmission computer with the most recent update and yes keep it that car is awesome.
Keep it! The 6-cylinder T6 is an amazing engine. So much potential.
Happy Birthday, I guarantee you’ll keep it👍👍
Happy Birthday and good luc, cant wait until March for the video
Looking forward to your review on the Polestar package. I think your videos are amazing! Keep up the great work, it is appreciated!
Thx!!!
I got my '13 XC60 R-Design that came with Polestar upgrade. I love this engine.
I have Polestar on my Volvo V70 D4 -16 (VEA-engine) and I love it. 200 diesel hp.
Look forward to your review on the polestar upgrade. I have considered it myself for my 2012 S 60
Cool! I would be interested to watch your review on the Volvo XC90. Due to the low emissions zone soon to be introduced to London I will have to upgrade my V70 D5 to a newer model and have thought of the XC90 D5 2.0 diesel.

Ps. Happy Birthday Yuri🥳🍻🥃🍾🥂
I say keep it ....only if u think its worth the price. Looking at the numbers.... Id keep it if it was me. Happy Birthday. The new XC90 is great :)
Happy birthday! My mom have a Volvo XC 70 2009

Polestar added to my 2010 XC60 was worth every penney.
Glad to hear you like it. I do too!
Happy birthday 🎂. I think to keep your XC70
A perfect birthday gift! 🙌🏻👍🏻

Did you get it? I think I'm picking up a 2013 XC60 next week. 87K miles on it, I am pretty sure I'm doing the P*
You will like it - on clean and dry road ;-)
I had it on T5 and T6. Amazing pill:-)
I just cant wait what your experience will be

Hello, did you bought “welcome package” or it was in set with polestar upgrade?
hi.
i did just optimize my car ,and wow.. the difference.
one question , did you get the owners package from your dealer ?
regards fellow Polestar and Volvo enthusiast from norway.
The package was provided on the day of optimization. What model and engine do you own?
@@volvosweden . 2013 XC70 summum. Org.163hk, after opt. 215hk

If I had 70,000$ Cad I would get the new V90 CC. But hey! I Dont. So keep my amazing XC70 T6 with Polestar!
volvosweden I am like you...well I would get the V60CC...but no money.
Just go to a 3-party optimizer and you save a lot of money. In sweden i got BSR own module to flash the software with so i can remove it if I want to. Cost me 600$
Polestar is not only tuning. Its optimization of components.
And polestar gives you full warranty 😀
Yes. But my Volvo is far from warranty now.
@@volvosweden to tune is to optimize components to reach the higher benefits. Polestar is a cash grab
BSR Does not optimize the transmission. And you void the warranty aswell.
Happy birthday 🍾
Nice to see they have the exact same coffeemachine in Canada as here in Sweden...... 😎

Cmon man …. The XC90 is one of the most iconic SuV period
U mean so much to me on this im in love with volvo ty
I know a dealer in the UK who charge £25 for a 2 week trial.
Not a bad deal if you are looking to try it.
Good deal for sure. I will not go back.
What is your fuel conumption? I am considering buying xc70 from 2016 D4 diesel...
Regards from Norway
I own the 3.0 turbo petrol. The D4 will be much more fuel efficient.
Ich habe bei meinem xc90 auch Polestar Upgrade machen lassen, und das war auch die richtige Entscheidung 👍🏻
If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost to Polestar your XC70?
1200$ cad
Happy birthday.

Hi ! How did you get the Volvo program and hardware for the laptop ?
It's called VIDA DICE. VIDA is software and DICE is hardware. Available to purchase on Ebay. Around 100usd
Thx
I looked into getting polestar when I got my s60 D4 but for some reason they skipped my engine 😢
Anyone knows how to know if polstar optimize i installed on the car? I think mine has been deleted?
Also thinking to polestar xc60 D4, tell me did the gearbox changed to better?
Yes. Reacts to your input faster. I have a friend with XC70 D4 and he did polestar. He was happy with the upgrade. Ask the dealer if they can give you 30 days to return it.
volvosweden i see, but mine is 2.4 with the old 5 cyl. and has 6 gears Automatic....the new ones 8 speed i know that they are smoother.
It's a remap called polestar?
I will get the polestar this week, No loncar, lucky me that i have vecation
Model year of your Volvo? Let us know here how you like it or not.
volvosweden It is Xc60 2015 D5 215hp to 230hp
Yes i will
So i was at the dealer today, and they Said that i alredy have it, so prewies onwner put it in but How do i know i have IF no one say it to me
I was reading that after the polstar update some Volvo's will require premium fuel only
I use premium anyway. The polestar website does not mention anything about fuel use.
I think the XC90 was the inscription
Keep it and havet fun.
Is polestar connected to petrol engines only?
Nope. Look on polestar webpage.
That keychain... 🔥🔥🔥
USA. Needs this ...
Mrs La Harris Polestar tuning is available in the US.
Keep keep keeeep
My land rover has the same engine as the xc90 although its called the L6. Maybe ill see if i can polestar it for shits an giggles
Cant polestar it. Its non turbo.
Happy birthday
So before you post video how you add polestar badge. So it wasnt polestared?
It wasnt. I had the badge on the center console for long. Now it finally matches.
That was my friends D4 in Russia. I own the 2009 XC70 T6. Dont get confused.
Where I live, Polestar is a strip club ! Really!
;)
Please let us know...
