Dear all, this is Lieven from Portugal. I just successfully installed drive modes on my (Belgian) 2018 V90CC without drive mode knob and without centre console switch.
057 to 03
452 to 01
337 to 01
All modes appeared and are working. However the drive mode menu dissapears after 10 seconds or so, the drive mode is displayed on the driver´s screen below the gear indicator. Lost hill descent control, but I think it is worth it. Drive modes are all very different in terms of shifting, accelerator pedal sensitivity, and power delivery. This is a different car. My motivation to engage with Orbit was the lazyness of the automatic gearbox, letting the engine rev without engaging, not taking benifit of the torque zone, especially when promptly accelerating from 1st or 2nd gear. I will keep you posted on my experience after 500km of driving.
