190 V6 lacking power
 
I have just got my v6 on the road and the first time I have driven it. It appears to lack power on acceleration, definitely what I expected having had 3 diesels. Sounds nice when revving up but seems sluggish when putting foot down. This can't be right?

Start by having a look at the 2 VIS motors, failure of these will affect performance quite a bit!

How and what do I check?

I thought the same when I switched. To be fair I did later find out both vis motors were knackered, but, it's still a change of driving style from the diesel to the V6.

Stick your foot down a bit more ;)
