4888 is an absolute nail, refuses to go with any sort of pace and really struggles up hills however the blowers are blowing cold(ish) air which is nice

Some of these E40Ds have their power modes enabled and still slug up hills.

There's no such thing as a 'power mode'

The topodyn system or whatever the hell has been tweaked to make them rev higher.

No NX buses have the system tweaked to make them rev higher, and I have no idea what a topodyn system is

Ronnoc

Ah well, either way some E400s are quite sluggish unfortunately.

There are a few 4900s at Westbrom that absolutely go like stink brilliant uphills too same as a good 4700s,  could be ECU mapping this alone can transform a vehicle.

I have noticed when the little Amber light with the smoke and exclamation point through it is on the E400s are snails but when it's out they can go like stink, I think its something to do with the DPF

yeah i have noticed that on mmc's a lot, will keep an eye out on other types. 
i have noticed while following  mmc at times they release big cloud of tailpipe crap then clears, is this the re'gen process
