I would like to buy a D5 estate to pull my caravan. I am looking at 2002/2004 but how do you know wich is the high 163 BHP and which is the 145BHP. I would prefer to have the 163 BHP model but it seems they are both the CC?

V70 D5's of that period are all 163 bhp. Not sure what the 145 bhp is, as I've never heard of a V70 with a 145 bhp D5 engine. The 185 bhp D5 was introduced in 2005.

the 130 bhp D5 was an option in some other countries but never UK ..

The 140 bhp D5252T was the VW engine which ceased production in 2000

All diesels can be tuned. Check out RICA or some other companies who do remapping.

The Audi/VW 140 bhp Volvo's sold here will be badged V70 Tdi if I remember correctly, as Volvo only badged it's own design of D5 engined cars as D5

To refer back to the first few posts about 940s etc. with a 5 cylinder diesel engine. To my knowledge, the 940 where never equipped with this but there was in fact an engine called D20 that was a five cylinder engine also sourced from VW and of course in fact the same engine as the D24 with one less cylinder. These were fitted to 200 series cars at least and sold in some countries, including Finland. They are rare and I have been told that they were slow, which I am sure anyone who has driven the D24 would believe.

I used to own a Volvo 740 D24T which I upgraded with an intercooler and later, I owned 940 D24TIC. These were superb cars, I miss them grately.

I have a eurospec 1997 V40 Diesel engine D4192t. I found a part leaking fuel on part of the injections throttel system. I don't know what the part is. It had a little rubber cover and two wires coming out of it. Partial number stamped on it was 968F01 - I am going to try to seal it with epoxy and high temp silicon. If anyone can help me ID the part or provide a tech manual I would be greatful. I can send a picture -
