Anti skid and ABS service lights

I have seen many forums about the anti skid and ABS lights appearing on the dash and I have seen many solutions. I drive a Volvo S60 2.5t FWD with 80k miles. The lights come on every once and a while, and they reset if I let the car sit for a few hours. My tires are not overinflated and I messed wit...

Re: Suspension noise

I missed it the first time, but my upper spring seat on the passenger side has a huge tear in it. Looks like you guys were right.

Re: Suspension noise

My sway bar bushings are worn and knock but it's a completely different noise. Maybe a worn strut ? Any leaks ? Are they original ? Should have a Volvo/Sachs sticker on the hidden side, can use a mirror. The struts are original (I have 80k miles). Theres no sign of leaking and they aren't greasy. T...

Re: Suspension noise

Update for everyone: I replaced the sway bar links with some Meyle HD's and the noise is still there. Did a bounce test while looking at the strut mount and there was no major signs of anything wrong. I think it could be the sway bar bushing. I'll make sure to check the bushing with a pry bar. If I ...

Re: Suspension noise

I lifted my car with both sides up and looked at the suspension again. I did not see any play with the sway bar link. Should I go ahead and order some new sway bar links? This user posted a video with the exact same noise I heard and they found out it was the sway bar link (https://www.matthewsvolvo...

Yeah, there are a lot of pot holes around here. Not sure if the previous owner had major damage from an accident that caused any suspension damage.

Re: Suspension noise

I honestly don't hear a squeaking noise, more of a clattering. Something is definitely amiss. I'd say most likely sway bar end links (1 per side, but do both if replacing just 1), passenger front spring seat and/or top mount plate. Bad sway bar bushings could also be drumming up some noise. Could a...

Re: Suspension noise

How many miles ? Pete has already told it all, I would add the brands used is essential on these cars. Have a search on google like "volvo s60 best brands parts forum", youll find plenty of topics. End links and spring seats are common items, try to conserve your old strut mounts as newer...

Suspension noise

I own a 2007 Volvo S60 2.5t, and my front passenger side wheel is making a clunking and squeaking noise when hitting bumps. I will attach a video with the noise at the end of the post. Not sure what is causing this noise, the noise is loud and happens mostly in neighborhoods (slower speeds). The noi...
