If you're umming and arring - just get the winter pack!

Ok, I used remote start for the first time today….

What should I do when I get in the car? I turned the start switch but it turned the engine off! I had to restart it….

What should I have done to wake the rest of the car up?

I've got the winter pack but am also lucky enough to have a garage...

I was debating HUD vs heated screen, but if I’d known about remote start it would have saved me debating.

The winter pack is slightly different depending on the year - earlier V60’s had heated front seats, heated aqua blades, heated windscreen and headlight washers - the heated windscreen is deleted if the HUD is selected (early Pro cars had the winter pack with HUD standard). Later cars got a heated wheel too.

It was an essential for me.

My Polestar has the pre-conditioning which is excellent but like all polestar’s, no heated screen (doesn’t need it).

Put your foot on the brake, then start.
