Replaced the lower engine mounts and something else. Further below Pics aren't the best, as I was indoors (was a bit chilly) and like that I had to do quick snap shots rather than fuss around with the camera.











Okay, now part 2... The D5 went...

...straight piped! No silencers and you know what? You barely notice a difference. Inside and out, it is slightly deeper in it's tailpipe chugg but that would be it. Still, found out my DPF is broken and I need to replace it soon.











Sound isn't really much. The recording is a little windy but the initial run is a bit deeper...

Unfortunately the wind didn't help in the second video.

What I notice is the turbos are more dominant. Otherwise no drone, no rattles, no pops or bangs... It isn't petrol powered. But hey, it still is better looking than what Volvo fitted to standard D5s from the factory! Those weird not fully round nor oval exhaust pipes are just weird.
