1997 AWD 850 Angle Gear Sleeve

I am in the middle of replacing my blown angle gear with a good used one. The sleeve that goes between the tranny and angle is being a real PITA. The tranny and bevel splines where the sleeve goes on are both worn from years of use and the sleeve will need to be forced on both sides. The tranny is s...

Re: 1997 850 AWD Whirring Sound

Hi Niel,

I will definitely keep that Kijiji add saved!

Re: 1997 850 AWD Whirring Sound

It's definitely coming from the passenger side, more towards the center than the wheel. I just got back from a work trip (drove almost 1500km), noticed a bit of an oil leak. But I figured that was the disgusting amount I had spilled while trying to fill. It was maybe -17 when I was leaving for work ...

1997 850 AWD Whirring Sound

Hello, I am trying to diagnose my 1997 850 AWD wagon. It recently started making a whirring sound when going faster than 20ish kph. Please listen here: https://youtu.be/8SnyPbABvjY As it is -41 here and Christmas, I haven't had much time to look into it. I am leaking what looks like engine oil, but ...
