In my view, the D5 Transmission is compromised. Maybe the next one will have a newer engine and transmission that meets the Co2 requirements of these type of vehicles.

MTE it is for me.
As said many times before, the delay experienced by some owners is not a factory default and not on all D5's, my own XC has no delay at all and neither has the dealer demonstrator that I drove.
