Yes... V70-XC70

Yes, mine is not very pronounced but it became evident after I had iPd flash my ECU.

I doubt it is the STC as the light never activates while it "pulses" under heavy accelration. Never does it on WOT while in 1st gear but usually when I am rolling (from 2nd) or if I am at normal speed and I am in 3rd or 4th gear.

One of my customers has experienced the same with his 2001 S60 T5 Manual, after he also had iPd flash his ECU. Then, he installed the TME sport exhaust and it went away. I wonder if it has to do with the need for a freer exhaust flow since the boost levels are higher.

I do not have the sport exhaust but at the end of next week I will have it (ordered it a week ago) and when I install it I will let you know if it went away.
