Of the diesel engines. From what I have read. V70 only below. XC70 had a 5 cycl D4?
1.6 - Underpowered for weight and size of car - and avoid the auto fitted with this engine - problematic.
2.0 4 cycl - Pre 5 cycl 2.0 D3 Ok power and decent economy - but more tempremental?
2.0 4 cycl - D4 - Prone to egr cooler clogging? Can stop with Premium diesel.
2.0 5 cycl D3 - Great compromise between power and economy - and I guess you have more opportunity to rev for the 5 cycl noise?
2.4 5 Cycl 2.4d - I think these are pretty robust?
2.4 5 Cycl D5 185 bhp - pretty good - but inlet maniforld flaps an issue? Just need to replace with age?
2.4 5 Cycl D5 205 or 215bhp - I think these are pretty good. Like how torquey they are with big and small turbo.
