I used to drive quite gently all of the time with my V50 2.0d, but the engine warning light came on a couple of times and dropped into limp mode, now I always give it a bit of welly once it is warm and it seems to of sorted the problem. I always let the engine idle of a minute after my commute 90 miles just to ensure there is enough oil around the turbo.
