Default Issues with Software Update + Lag

Hi,

I had my XC60 serviced yesterday and the latest software was applied.

The car now feels sluggish, and there is a approx 1 sec lag when pulling out of roundabouts.

I remember when the Nov 2019 Gearbox update was applied at the last service and this issue was resolved, so i am not sure why it has reverted back, especially as I have Polestar on the car.

Anyone experience more laggyness after a software update? Be keen to hear your experiences.

Thanks.

I have a vague recollection of someone on here having a software update at a service, but the service dept., neglecting the fact that he had Polestar, and so effectively overwriting the polestar upgrade.

Wouldn't swear my recollection was accurate, though, might not even be possible to do that. Not sure how you would check either.

We had a software update done on Monday as someone said on the forum that the latest update helped with the gearbox lag but I don’t think it has improved it or made it worse. The last update on the was done on the service in October.
There is a new icon appearing on start up now of a small car where the temperature is.

Really sad to hear that ;(
I said on forum that they solved my transmission lag during June update. Opposite to you i really have huge lag before update but after new software was loaded my gearbox behaves much better.

I haven't noticed that icon on my display

Please update picture with it

I will take a photo hopefully later but now on 1st startup where the temperature readout is above the dials a little car appears and shows a dot on the seats that are in use and then disappears after a few minutes and goes back to the temperature display.

So... that replaces the outside temp for a while after starting the car? How annoying. What was wrong with the previous message in the middle of the display that you could just dismiss with the steering wheel button?

I don't like change

Well it stays for about a minute and then the temperature takes its place. Not annoying IMO.

There is one more new future for the cars which have Park assist. On the sensus under the message when to stop or to put in either reverse or forward, there is a line of many blue bars, which reduces with the maneuver and it is actually trying to tell for how long the maneuver will be before you need to press the brakes.
