    Diesels are a bit like that, they will be a bit quieter when warm.

    Its just the oil warming up and getting into lube everything up mate, as said they are quite quiet when warm. Modern diesels are actually very quiet

    got the v6 petrol and have to say you need to rev it a bit to get the power, between 3-4k revs it starts to come to life
