Hi & a happy new year to you all.
Bought myself a C30 2.0D 10 days ago and am enjoying it.  Its my second Volvo, had a 740 yrs ago, and sold it with 130k miles on.
Will at some time be looking to gain a few more horses from it, but don't rate the plug in chips.
There is a tuner :- Sedox Performance close by with a dyno, so may look them up.
Anyone have any recommendations on this?
Cheers
GF

Welcome :).
If it warrantied then the Polestar upgrade is the way to go.
If not under warranty I would pay out for MTE as they are still in my opinion the best off the shelf remaps for the later cars.

No Problems, Polestar maps are expensive however they don't invalidate warranties and have only had good reports back from the people who have had them done.
