Not sure if yours and/or all 530d's are the same but with my two the initial throttle response has a small delay before all the power comes in which I am assuming is turbo-lag.
This is probably the only thing that has distracted from 2 other wise perfect cars.
The F30 320d I test drove had no delay, more like a non-turbo petrol engine which felt superb so I am hoping the 330d twin power will respond more like that.  |
Yeah mine is just the same, I have the sport auto box so can get around it by leaving it in sport mode or using the flappy paddles to drop a cog. But you're right it is the perfect car, good looking, very quick, roomy and economical. Was heart-broken when I aquaplaned and crashed it into the central reservation on the M18, still got on the TV! Don't like the new 5 series - too big, like a truck.
