The next day, following the new 'update', I received the car back thankfully feeling as it did originally with a note on the job card saying 'Polestar Engineered software installed' although there was no explanation as to what originally happened.
Make of that what you will but for me, its clear a different models software can be installed onto a car overwriting whatever was originally there and yes, it made a very noticeable difference.


Its impossible to put wrong software into a volvo , the software package is put together at volvo sweden when you order it to suit that particular model . Now there may have been an error written in one of the software packages , then the dealer connects the car to sweden for their engineers to alter and download the software manually .... that's very rare however ...
