Slack in the front passenger side

Post by moonchild90 »

Hi! I'm new to the forum!

I've been driving volvos for decades.

1972-142GL
1974-144DL
1978-244DL
1982-245GL
1985-240 sedan GL
1988-240 wagon turbo
1994-850 2.5 10V
1996-850 2.0 10V

So the 850 models is pretty new to me...

I have a sound coming from the right front in my 850 from 94'. It mostly comes when the motor is cold. It's a kind of slack when speeding up and down.

First I thought it was a ball joint, and I replaced the ball joints in both sides with no luck. I have tested the steering joints, and there's no slack at all..

Any recommendations and tips?

Thanks!
