All,

Sometimes, a weird metal on metal sound coming from the rear during acceleration. No DCTs in VIDA, no any other AWD related errors. Rear wheel bearings replaced, so I'm suspecting the propshaft bearing is on its way out.
As far as I know Volvo supplies only the entire propshaft which is way too expensive.
My car is a daily driver.

  • Will it do any further damage if I leave it on the car - besides the terrible noise?
  • Can be the propshaft removed temporarily and drive it only in 2wd till I find a solution?
  • What would be the best option to get this sorted?
  • Does someone have info about what bearings I would need?



Thanks in advance!
