Good afternoon all!

I'm sorry if this has been covered before, I have had a brief search but couldn't find anything...

I've have my 530d for a couple of weeks now and loved every single moment. I've had a mechanic briefly check round it, a few niggles to fix...

But my car will pull okay in the lower rev range, but at 3000rpm it takes off like a rocket. Please correct me if I'm wrong (never had a derv before!), but shouldn't the power kick in a lot earlier in the rev range?

I'm having the egr cleaned out and cleaning the MAF soon, but I don't know whether that'll solve anything? .. Will I need a new MAF?

Thank you in advance!
