Clunks

Post by Music Man »

Hi. Anyone out there had trouble with audible plasticky/solid clunks from under the XC90? Mine used to do it occasionally on our long uneven road up to our house, but now does it anytime, anywhere, except, possibly motorways. Been to Volvo dealer who said it 'might' be a problem with the seatings of the coil suspension springs. The parts are only around £12.50 + vat each (but top and bottom x 4 = 8 of these) plus, of course, Volvo's astronomical labour charges. And then it only might be that?? Has anyone had a similar problem? Many thanks.

I just replaced both of my sway bar links. That fixed the problem. Make sure to get OEM parts too.
