Re: 2007 V70 needs new engine

Is it worth trying to drop the oil pan and see if I can get to the bearings for replacement? A bandaid or possible fix?
Right now the car is at the shop and I'll need to make a decision. Maybe sell it for parts. The body and interior are in great shape.

This is an online video of what her car sounded like. (This isn't her car but the sound is the same).

Re: 2007 V70 needs new engine

Thanks for all the quick replies. I will ask about the filter and also possibly the oil pan to see if there are metal shavings.
From some online research, it sounds like a rod/bearing is bad. There is the clanking noise so it is more than a tensioner or belt.
The $4800 is labor included but he said ...

2007 V70 needs new engine

So my wife has a 2007 V70 (blue 5 cylinder non turbo) we bought used in 2011 (39K miles at the time).
I think it has ~129k miles on it.
She went on a trip ~500 miles round trip and comes home ... car starts making a chirping sound and a clacking sound.
Short story, we towed it to a Volvo repair shop ...
