It would definitely help...

Exactly: I opened the thread expecting to read about a new step of the 3.0d biturbo- something like 306 HP

I own and drive a e60 530d... diesel is much better.. better milage, pull when required, and 218HP engine... no difference from gas engines these days... just much better.. but much more expensive

I think when the 535d hits North America all the 535 guys will have a new target , these things are torque monsters......

Still do not understand with like 450 foot pounds of torque how can the 535d only do 0-60 in 6.2 seconds. That is .5 seconds 7slower than my 530 was with exhaust and intake and ecu tune with 230 foot pounds and only 276hp. How is this possible/?
