You are very welcome mate. These are crazy cheap on auto trader in 2 years a 60k car is now 20k! That's an amazing price for such a lot of car. Worth a look
@@markshonestreviewsandhealt6953 deffo. Gray one i looked at was 22k but high miles. Can you tell me how much kwph it is to charge at home fully. Like in pounds and the range you get. Thx.
Hi,thank you very much for such a lovely and informative video. We just got our polstar 2 last week, and I can't find an option for screen wallpaper or theme. Do you know by any chance how to change it ?Thank you very much
Hi Jelena, thank you for the kind comment. Really glad it helped you. I'm sorry but I didn't know that you could change the background. If I find out how to do it I will let you know.
Hi Dean, thanks for the comment. This is a good question I have never tried so will give this a go for you and let you know what it's like. Will probably be Monday as I am away but leave it with me cheers
Hi Mark, thanks for the helpful video. I'm in the US and have had my Polestar for less than a week. I'm having major problems with the tablet screen randomly rebooting frequently. 6 times so far today. My Polestar service center is clueless and can't schedule me in until July to check it out. Have you ever had this rebooting issue?
Hi Dave,sorry to hear you are having issues. I have only had mine for two weeks and so far had no issues with the tablet or the car. Have you got the latest software update? Have you tried holding the home button down to reset the system? If you have the tablet sounds faulty either way it may be an app causing it to crash. I would try deleting any apps you have installed e.g TH-cam music etc and see if the problem stops. Thanks for your comment let me know how you get on
One other thing you can also try is setting up a new user account and seeing if that account has the same issue or not at least that way you have tried everything.
@@markshonestreviewsandhealt6953 Thanks Mark for the ideas. I just did a factory reset on the reset options. I will have to finish the setup process later as it was giving me a message that it couldn’t make an internet connection. I’ll let you know how it goes once I figure out the internet issue now.
So if I install Audible for Android from the Play Store - will it start with a different profile based on the key that started the car - i.e. When my wife is driving will she have access to her book library or only mine - thus requiring us to log the app out and then back in under a new account each time?
@@mikeperrett1539 yes, it will work on your profile so each time you enter the car it will work via the Google account that is logged in at the time. If your wife gets in the car she can choose her profile and I believe (I haven't tried this) it should then work on her audible etc
I don’t have the ‘Driver Support’ tab on my menu option. I am not able to ause the adaptive or steering assist functions. Do you know why this tab is not on my screen as an option for the cruise control?
I'm sure you could do loads of things via your phone mate, but it's pretty inconvenient especially when you're driving and it just cuts off. I just want it to work to be honest especially when you pay so much money for a vehicle you just want the easiest option, but yes you could probably stream via your phone if you have a signal. Not something I would do. Cheers
Personally I dislike the UI. Wish more manufacturers dedicated as much effort as Tesla on that. On the bright side, the Apple announced car UI will be supported by Polestar.
I have one of these cars on order and I am seriously considering canceling it. I have a huge music library. If this car does not allow you to play your own music it is a big FAIL in my book.
Yes I fully agree with you it has been a real let down for me. Hopefully they will see that people need this function and correct it with the next update
Given this is Android Automotive, you can be confident there will be or is already a way - official one soon or through a 3rd party app. If this was some Apple product, then yeah, potentially not seeing it for years coming if they decide not to include.
Marvelous vid! Picking up my EV today at Hertz in about 4 hours…. Nervous but ur video helped a lot
Thanks for the tip on putting the screen into cleaning mode. The garage that delivered it told me to switch the car off to clean the screen!
@@westermolad you are very welcome. I can't believe they said that to you! 😭
Great vid. I test drove one of these a few days ago the dual motor version and jeeeeeeeez it was amazing. This is gonna be my next motor. Thx for vid

I test drove one a few months back and now I'm picking up my own car tomorrow :)
This is very helpful mate. I've been looking to buy one of these cars and I like your videos on how to use the features.
@@gerardomelara8034 thanks mate that's very kind I have done a few vids on the polestar you may find helpful 👍

Hi Mark great detail and info. What's it like if you connect via Bluetooth to your phone on amazon music?

Hey, I got a question why my temp is not synching? The synch button is greyed out for me and whenever I click it, it doesn't change.
That seems a bit strange my default is that it syncs I have to manually choose it to have different temperatures
Great!
Thank you ☺️
Why not play YT music on the phone over BT in the car if the car has no internet?
I'm sure you could do loads of things via your phone mate, but it's pretty inconvenient especially when you're driving and it just cuts off.

Can you have two phones connected at once?
Yes, but only one can make phone calls the other can play music etc
Diescar cover lte speeds for life or only while in warranty, if not can u use your phones jot spot

They've added the ability for this in the 2.2 update, third party apps can play media from a USB drive
@@TheBoredEditor yes thanks I did an update on this in my likes and dislikes video! So good they have changed this now. Thanks for the comment 😊

@@MartinzW just to let you know I did another video in case you missed it but this has now been updated and usb works 👍
