rough ride and rattles S80 1999

Is any one out there having problems with a really rough ride and rattles?

I have a S80T with 52,000 miles on it and I just replaced the upper motor mount on it-it was completely gone. I have also had a rattle (s) ever since the car was new and have replaced shocks and other items that the dealer thought was causing the problem. The problem is still there!
I cann't help think that this is a result of the rough ride that I am getting is just affecting everything in the car.

My next door neighbor has an 870 with similar problems. About every 8,000 miles, he is replacing rubber bushings because they are wearing out. Also, he says that every time he hits a bump he looks in the rear-view
mirror to see if any thing has fallen of the car. This was his first and last Volvo.

Unfortunately after 4 Volvo's ( the 240 being my favorite) this is also my last.

If i could receive any kind of feed back, I would appreciate it.

Thanks Al
