I have an S40 1.6 drive ... I had a similar low power issue very sluggish, 92k one owner when I bought it earlier this year.
The car is now outstanding.... I did two things.. one I had it removed which gives it about 30bhp more and second I had the DPF flushed and cleaned. My combined MPG was 50mpg before.. so far this tank is at 68.6mpg.... pulls from 1200rpm smoothly in 5th...
Very different car...
