Re: Knocking sound over bumps S70 99

David-

I have a '99 V70R AWD with 22k- purchased 11/00 with 20k. Last week my wife stated the car was making a 'funny' noise. I took it to work and experienced the noise while stopped and turning the wheels and also during almost all driving conditions. With the car on a rack and turning the wheels I could feel a vibration coming from the left swaybar link. After removing the part, I could feel a slight resistance in the lower joint but little else. A new link cured the symptom. We replace a few links for various noise complaints, but this is the first one I've seen that makes noise with the car stopped. The noise could have been described as a 'ratcheting' sound because it was a series of rapid 'pops' under some conditions. Have you demonstrated the noise for your dealer?
