My mate had a similar problem with his V70, he did 2 things, he's not sure which worked.
1. Disconnect the battery for a few hours (seems to remedy several problems)
2. Fire a load of WD40 into the lock barrel. (other lubricants are available)
Hope this is of some use.
You enjoying the car otherwise?
I have a Haynes book of lies that covers both our cars, if you need any info let me know ;)

Unplugging the battery will also reset the ecu which allow you to "train" the car to drive the way you want it to.

Remember what mine sounded like? All it takes is a cone filter. The filter you saw on my car is up for grabs if you're interested? Just been cleaned and oiled too ;)
