My 245 GL 1989 has had clunking from nearside. In the UK LHS in the gutter.

I eventually found that you need a new 18/19mm nut from Volvo. This is a locknut, use once. It is slightly squashed. It finally solved the rattle.

I think 18/19 (cant remember which) ring spanner is best. A long shank will need a lot of space. An H lift would be ideal for the lucky few. I think the torque must be similar the wheels nuts.
