Driver side cv axle into transmission
So I've noticed on most driver side cv axles at junk yards and videos online the driver side cv axle is fairly tight when installed with very little in and out play, if any at all at the site where the inner axle meets and goes into the transmission. On my S80 I have an aftermarket cv axle installed...

Steering Rack 2004 S80 problems
Hey everyone, I've had issues with my steering for almost as long as I've owned my 2004 S80 T6. The symptoms are many and I'll start with some history. The entire front suspension has been replaced within the past 2,000 miles, and car currently at 200,000. New bilstein front shocks, ipd HD strut mou...

Re: Driver CV Axle Problems

Re: Driver CV Axle Problems
Just an update - Put the car into neutral today while it showed symptoms and there was no difference in vibrations in N or D. Ready to chalk it up as a fun "quirk" of the car and drive it into the ground. The car is at 200,000 miles and started leaking oil this summer so I'm tackling the p...

Re: Driver CV Axle Problems
bronco - The subframe has been dropped a few times (oil pan replacement, steering rack replacement, transmission rebuild, and also have installed the IPD poly subframe bushing inserts on all four bushings. They checked out good a couple weeks ago by my mechanic and I also rechecked the torque on all...

Re: Driver CV Axle Problems
Thanks for the input guys. I should have mentioned I have swapped the tires from left and right and front and back with no change in the vibration location. All four rotors were also replaced 10,000 miles ago when I thought that could be the issue and again the vibration issue stayed the same. There...

My 2004 S80 T6 has had lots of repairs and work done on it but one thing that I have lived with for years now is a front end intermittent vibration. The front end has been completely rebuilt... new control arms, ball joints, B6 bilst...
