Clunking sound from under the front ormiddle of car

Everything on the Volvo S80. Sometimes called an "executive car", the S80 was Volvo's top-of-the-line passenger car. P2 platform.

Clunking sound from under the front ormiddle of car

Post by Mark27 »

I would greatly appreciate if someone could tell me what is the clunking sound under the middle to front end of my 03 S80. The sounds occur when I come to a complete stop after traveling above 15mph and when I take off from that stop. I also hear it when going into my drive way, which has a little bump prior to entering and when going over speed bumps or large humps in the road. I really do not hear it when going over small pot holes. I also feel a small vibration in my feet when it happens.

Its impossible to pinpoint it without seeing the car.

Things to check,

Axle bolts that go through the wheel bearing hub,
Sway bar end links
broken exhaust hangers
broken upper strut mount
broken engine mount (maybe)
