I heard an ominous sound on our V70 AWD a couple months ago when mindlessly parking. I was pulling into a spot with a curb & the front of the car actually made contact. I hadn’t experienced that before, & am darn sure to never do it again. It scraped the underside of the front of the subfram...

The fact that the cars are known to 'sink" is still further reason to provide some protection for the radiator. Making the job of replacement a little easier wouldn't hurt either.

They were bent in 3 places and wouldn't lie flat so I was having trouble getting the gaskets to stay put. M6 threaded rod isn't a thing anywhere near me so I dug out 2 M6 bolts ,...
