I have good news about the surging engine at WOT. I went for my 144,000 kilometer checkup yesterday and I explained to the technician how my car was outputting uneven power when i go WOT (wide open throttle). He scratched his head a little and remembered about a software download about eneven torque on heavy accleration for the S80. If I remember its download number 527.

I took the car out for a highway ride last night, all I can say is... YEEEEEEE-HAAAAA!!! I totally forgot how much this car can whoop ass! It feels and drives like new. I hope this software download will do the same for you.

    Thank you Alex for the news. My car is still having its power surges off and on and the dealer here has not been able to repair the situation. I'll tell them about your experience and hopefully, they're install the updated software.
