You were all correct. Just glad it meets expectation for the cost.

Get nice overrun pops when the car is cold (more fuelling) if you let of the gas after hard acceleration.


My V70R used to do this, and kind of reminds me of that. Makes my the decision to go back to petrol powered the correct one (over the 530d).

Will be interesting to see if the mpg recovers once if I start driving 'normally' again.

I will try some higher octane petrol on the next fill up, as again you used to feel difference in the V70R, I presume due to the higher boost.
