Tires are brand new pirelli scorpions. 215/65/16 put them on when I did all the work in the last 2 weeks

Nope the tranfer case came from Volvo (reman) can't get them new. The same with the rear. I did hear a whine for the first day. Figured it was the new case and rear wearing in. It stopped after the second day. It's acting like it has a possi front diff, Is that a sign of the viscous coupling gone ba...

Considering I'm a ASE cert tech and have been working on cars since the age of 5. And professionally racing since the age of 14. I don't think so. I've never had a rear or motor or transfer case blow on me after 3 days of driving. VOLVOS ARE CRAP AND I BELIVE IT NOW. An I don't think it's possible t...

I will never buy another Volvo again! :oops: :oops: :oops: got mine with 127k on it. it has 152k at the moment.

There is no seal there. if fluid level is high enough, like when engine has been off for a while and torque converter drains back into sump, then fluid is high enough to come out there. The cup you put back in place may stop fluid from the bore inside splines but the axle gear the axle inserts into...

Ooohhh I c now. 15??

So is it normal for fluid to come out of there after refilling it? What keeps the fluid from coming out there?

i cant figure out which seal/seals i need... Its leaking from where the screw driver is sitting. in between the axle shaft and the transfer case spline sleeve.
