Spoke to the dealer today and it seems they do think there is an issue after testing other XC60s in the dealership and not replicating the same noise. They have therefore raised it with Volvo abd we’ll have to see what happens.
I disagree with the poster who said that it’s something that happens on all ‘auto hold’. I’ve had 2 VW CCs, both with auto hold, neither of which made this noise when pulling away with auto hold. I know they are different manufacturers but I’d have thought the principle of auto hold is the same. The Service Manager at the dealership said he has a v90 which doesn’t make this noise.
More waiting while they try and sort it out. Think the car has spent almost as much time at the dealership as in my position since I bought. Starting to get a little disheartened and yearning for my CC back.

If you aren't on an uphill start when it happens it is the auto handbrake feature. This can be disabled with the little button immediately behind and part of the parking brake switch. There is a tiny green light that shows when it is switched on. Switch it off, by pressing it briefly for the light to extinguish and all your troubles 'should' go away.*
