I suspected not. There must be some other way of doing it in that case and I've asked before about this. Nobody seems to know. On some other brands it is a case of disconnecting the battery for at least ten minutes but nobody has mentioned that for this particular reason for Volvo as far as I'm aware.

Not suggesting this would work for Volvo, but as an example to reset the gearbox adaptation on BMW's you: switch on the ignition, floor the accelerator right down past the kickdown, hold for 30s and then switch off the ignition.
