Im absolutely gutted!!! I was about to buy my new V70R tomorrow, and while driving my S70 down the motorway, it started making a tapping noise! Come to the end of the motorway, and it sounds VERY loud. A sort of metally tapping noise from near the alternator, and the tapping rises with the engine and goes fairly quiet at speed, but on tick over This was after booting it a little (the car stuttered a little due to overboost)
Anyone any ideas??? I took it to a Volvo specialist in Southport, who said he didnt have a clue, but it sounds expensive Ive got the sound on my phone, but dunno how to post it. Is it possible to throw a valve??? or could it be the alternator??? I glad I didnt sell it now, only for some poor sod to have to foot the bill.
So, there's gonna be a lovely V70 R on Ebay VERY shortly with a reserve of £4500.
Yours
Gutted!
