    The 140PS is also a 2.0.

    Yep my 05 plate Audi A4 2.0TDI is 140 PS. Since i've not had a single problem with it (i only do 8k miles per year on short runs and it sits in garage for 6 months of the year) does this mean its NOT fitted with a DPF? If so, how does it burn away the soot?

    Cheers :)

    The latest copy of whatcar magazine reports (p41) that volvo has written to some diesel car owners because the oil level can rise in their engine. This could cause the engine to maintain speed when the throttle is released

    I was wondering what could cause the oil level to rise, perhaps they have a similar system to Mazda?
