It’s like the mixture is too rich and there’s no performance at all.
Also if I really boot it up to 3000-4000 revs there’s a puff of black smoke out of the exhaust.
I have Vida but no codes stored.
Anyone have any ideas or pointers for me please?
Thanks all.

Solution was - Rear lower engine moint was leaking vacuum, also Turbo air pipe had spli, also intercooler was rusted and swollen.
Thanks to Bridgend Volvo for finding all of the above.
