I’ve got it. Just not that impressed. Its just an alternative set of ecu maps like the ones on the knurled dial that should be standard.

The latest software improved the gear box slightly. And A tuning box will get you alot more power for a lot less if that's what you want. Havnt got it on my v90 d5 and no way I'd spend that much on what is just making a gearbox work as it should!

I've got XC90 with Polestar. I recommend it. It makes the acceleration from stop smoother.
