And my last issue : unbalanced drive-shaft 900

Dear Eric the Swiss,

Hope you're well and stay so. I recall posts pointing out that driveshafts are balanced by using bolts of different lengths. Thus, if there's still slight vibration after you figure out the basic alignment, mark bolts' position at each end. Then move the bolts until the vibration "goes away'. This is time consuming and would have been avoided, had the mechanic known how to work on Volvo driveshafts.

You need to find another mechanic, who has - or is willing to get - access to an on-line Volvo "how to" manual. Or, see if you can find the Volvo service manual devoted to driveshafts. It is TP34125/1. It is only 24 pages. Even so, it will make clear how driveshafts are to be disassembled.

Hope this helps!

Stay Safe and Well!!

Yours faithfully,

Spook
