Volvo have actually doubled their initial offer of 60% goodwill, but the warranty company are sticking to their guns and won't stump up the remaining 40%. No way am I paying over £500 for a new seat base to cover that myself.

Based on that if get back onto the supplying dealer and ask them to rectify or provide the proof of worked when they sold it. I don't think they have a leg to stand on.

It's booked in for an hour to diagnose at the supplying dealer next week. They're clueless, he asked if it was under warranty as not showing as being so on the computer. The wife spoke to him and said, well we bought it from you in May so of course it is. I'll keep you posted on the outcome, but I'm not hopeful tbh.

UPDATE :
My wife took the car to the dealer we bought the car from on Thursday for an hour. They didn't mention a stretched cable, however they did mention that the cable was attached as it should be, so probably a mechanism issue that's caused it. But also the part isn't available separately so a complete seat base would be required as the previous dealer said. The service manager called the warranty provider and explained to them, they've asked for a video of the issue and they may want to inspect it themselves before agreeing to the claim. I'm still waiting for the dealer to call me back and let me know what the outcome is.

UPDATE
Selling dealer took a video of the seat and sent it off to the warranty company, who have now agreed to pay for a seat base replacement! Happy days! However they can't get the car booked in for 3 weeks. Even worse news, today the engine management light came on again for the third time in 7 months. This car is killing me - by far the most unreliable vehicle I've owned.

This time I think it's the PP again as I can hear what I think is the compressor kicking in and out every minute or two.

UPDATE
It's exactly what I expected, the powerpulse is losing pressure again. Over 8 times the maximum allowance. Its going in for further diagnostic and hopefully a repair when the seat base is replaced next year.

UPDATE
Apparently the seat has been done. But they've had the car for 10 days now trying to fix the powerpulse. Thankfully the V60 CC B5p they've given us as a courtesy car is actually lovely to be in, look at and drive, so I'm not that bothered about it!

Had the car back yesterday. 15 days in total. Seat base replaced and now working fine. Powerpulse valve replaced and I must admit it seems to pick up better from a standstill.
