you've got the updated Volvo square bush which Powerflex don't do. You'll need an older round housing, i've got one & with matching Powerflex bush which was too rough on my D5. They do several different bolt patterns with the round mount so i'll post a pic up if your interested

just had a look & the rear left bolt is a totally different length from the mount

Hi p.fandango
Sorry to butt in but in what way was the Powerflex bush too rough as mine needs doing on my S70 2.5T Auto?
Thanks.

to much engine vibration on a derv for a polly mount
