The specialist rather dismissed the concept of software updates as a main delay ploy which doesn’t really do anything, but this may have been because he did not have the connection or kit to do it.
I know that many of the updates are more concerned with drivability, gearbox and engine management.
Is there anywhere that I can find a list of the updates which could be applied to my car and what changes they made?
Can I pay a one off fee (how much) to a Volvo dealer to be brought up to date?
Thanks in advance.

Your specialist isn't that much of a specialist if he can't do software updates.
Just get a dealer service next time its due. You're doubtless recoiling in horror at the suggesion, but youll get an automatic software update and £200 worth of Volvo Assist. Thats why I stick with the dealer rather than Hortons (who can do software uodates) - it would cost more for Hortons to service it and then buy the breakdown cover separately than just chucking the keys at the dealer.
