I just purchased a 2004 V70 AWD with 125K miles on it. All my previous Volvos (10) have been rear-wheel-drive (9) or front-wheel-drive (1). The '04 had one previous owner and was always serviced by dealership. While researching maintenance procedures for the drivetrain I keep running across the terms "Haldex" and "bevel gear". Which of these correspond to the more typical terms that I'm used to hearing: "transfer case" and "front/rear differential"? What maintenance is required and how often? Thanks.
