not sure if down on power?!

can't be 100% as it still shifts like hell but it certainly doesn't feel as quick off the line as it first did Confused

i recall in the early weeks of ownership the feel of being splatterered into my seat when i floored it off the line but now it doesn't seem to feel as strong.

could it be that i have got used to it or could i have a problem? Big Cry

anyway to check if i have a fault? not had any warning lights on the dash as other threads mention.

i need to check my VIN to see if the assurance programme is required but i haven't been contacted by my dealer as i thought i would if it was required. it is a 10 plate picked up early March. XC90 T8 R Design Pro

Funny you should notice that, as I suspected the same thing but thought I must have just become used to the power. It certainly feels sluggish compared to when it was new, I was worried for my license as I seemed to be over the limit without realising seconds after taking off from standstill. Like you I have no errors being displayed, and mine is a March delivery. Would be interesting to hear if other D4'ers experience the same feeling... 2005 D3 TdV6 HSE Buckingham Blue

I have the same problem on my D4 in hong kong.

it does not feel strong as before, could that be the air filter, cos I only changed engine oil n engine air filter.

my car has done only 12000km!

should I change it?

help i want my power back Bow down
