Hi all,
My motor has always made a few knocks when going over certain bumbs at certain speeds (so not always noticeable).
The worst was the jarring type noise which *sounded* like it was coming from the sills when you went over rumble strips at about 30.
Anyway, local volvo dealer couldn't find anything on several visits.
More recently I've been getting funny clunking noises every now and again when I go up or down a bump - like a speed bump. Definitely coming from the front of the car now usually either driver or passenger side - never at the same time.
Last night, after one of these noises, I put my hand up behind the wheel and had a bit of a poke around. I felt there was some very slight lateral movement in the driveshaft - could this be part of the problem?
Probably not the cause of the noises from everywhere else though!!!
Anyone have any thoughts what these various noises might be and what I should get checked? Or is it a "feature"?
On a related note: my father has an S80 on sports suspension, a year younger than mine and they've just replaced all the suspension because of knocking noises after about 5 trips to the dealer. It's come back again now!!! So I'm wondering if I'll ever get it sorted??
