Klaus,

As usual thank you for the response. Based on the check ditig (7) this sudan does have the Nivomats. I get the same response when I go to the local Volvo dealer and tell them it is the AWD S70 out front - they always come back in and say they don't see a wagon anywhere. I don't know how many 99 AWD S70's were made but I am guessing it was not many.

At this point I will change the struts (bilstein) and stut mounts. At 144K it is time. If I have ride or tire wear issues after the front end, then I will take a look at the rear.

Also wanted to pass along that I removed the rear drive shaft last week and the issues turning hard left and right completely disappeared. That indicates a bad VC, which I am not sure I want to replace at this point. Erie has life time replacements for $300, so it might be in the cards later.

Thank you again

Oliver
