Hey everyone,
Just saw this on eEuroparts... And it fits our S70? Where does this go?

I've replaced all my engine mounts, can't believe I missed this one!

Not sure this fits a FWD car. On an AWD it fits on the LHS between the transmission and the frame. If it is fitted to your car, by removing the LH front wheel you should see it at a point to the right of the axle and look straight up at the top of the inner fender into the engine bay.

Never heard of it.

Here is a nice diagram, this page says it fits C70 convertibles only, http://www.volvopartswarehouse.com/p/Vo ... 31357.html

Oh, and I am not disputing Neil's more informed remark.

Weird as my copy of Vida shows it fits C70's but also lists S/V70 P80's in the position I suggested. The part for the AWD looks similar but different part #'s. Don't have a FWD P80 to verify though. Do find Vida can be a bit screwy on some parts.

As I said I actually have no idea, I defer to you and VIDA, didn't even know about the AWD part.

As this had me wondering I decided to go and look on my 97 850 NA FWD just in case I missed this too. I've attached a couple of pictures below and have tries to show where I think the bracket attaches when the car needs that mount:

: Looking from behind LH front wheel

: Close up of where mount would fit

If you see the 3 un-used threaded holes above the axle shaft in a triangular pattern on the side of the transmission, this is where I know this mount attaches on an AWD like my 2000 V70R. Not sure the reason why this and C70 use this. Do P80 FWD use this point?
