I think my cars running a bit rich, is there any easy way to adjust the mixture on a std 2.5 engine?
Thx
Chris

edit: could the fact I'm running the car on V-power be doing this?
 
There should be an adjustment on top of the Air Flow Meter. This is the device that should be bolted to your airbox. On the turbo there is an allen screw adjustment on top of the AFM housing. The screw sets the AFM at tick-over and your ECU mapping determines AFM at partial throttle.

The best thing to do is to measure the AFR via an exhaust probe before you change anything to confirm you have a problem. Any MOT station will be able to do this for you.
 
Yes, that's the AFM but i'm not sure if that is the adjustment screw. The turbo AFM looks different but looks like it should be around that vicinity.
