I loaded your explain analyze to https://explain.depesz.com/, as:
https://explain.depesz.com/s/iXK
as you can see there, the problem is that you made 280 thousand checks
for "sed_uttak y", which seems to be related to this part:
> Select a.status, a.plass, a.navn, a.avlsnr,
> date_part('day',(now() - s.dato)) dato_diff, v.tekst, COALESCE(a.avlsverdi,0)

from what I understand, you're doing it to work on newest record from
sed_uttak, for each avlsnr.
What is rowcount in the table, and how many different avlsnr are there?
You might want to do something like:
with s as (
select distinct on (avlsnr) *
from sed_uttak
order by avlsnr desc, dato desc
)
and then use "s" instead of set_uttak, and get rid of the s.dato
= (select max....) checks.
