Replacing Front Struts and Rear Shocks on S40 2002 1.9 Turbo

Post by Gerald52 »

Well I have put this off for a long time but now it is time to do it! That is change the Front Struts and the Rear Shocks on my 2002 S40 1.9 Turbo with 139000 miles on the originals :oops: ; guess it is about time. I have done this on other cars but I am a little hesitant with the Volvo. I read and downloaded from this site a step by step on Front Struts (general not model specific), looks petty simple for an average mechanical skilled person. I was looking for something on doing the rear shocks :) . They look like a basic shock but I haven't found any material to read to verify what I am seeing. Anyone have a "How To" guide on this or has done it?!?
