Hi,

I recently purchased a v60 d5 with polestar upgrade. 230bhp.

After a few weeks of getting used to the car I have some questions. What are other owners impressions of the power delivery of the d5?

Smooth and progressive is how I'd describe mine, it doesn't feel quick. Nor does it push you back in the seat.

I have admittedly stepped out of a v70 T5 with mods that was pretty nippy.

But the Mrs previously had a mondeo txsport 2.2 200bhp and the torque delivery in that was impressive it really shoved you into the seat all be it for a really small part of the rev range.

Any experience or hints or tips? Do they suffer from leaking boost pipes etc?

Thanks
