Understand I am frustrated, pretty disappointed, fairly discouraged after spending nine hours yesterday and five more hours today grunting, crawling, swearing and using all my energy replacing both front and rear Trailing Arm bushings, torque rod bushings and the panhard rod bushings. All with a SuperPro polyurethane kit I've been waiting months and months to get.

I have had- and now STILL HAVE- very pronounced "snap" and "pop" sounds from rear end since I bought this particular 245 nine months ago. Thinking it was rear TABs (so did a well respected Volvo shop I consulted), I replaced the whole shebang back there.

It's all still popping back there, and I think even louder now. I wish I could hang my head underneath the car to see where it's coming from. It happens after I back up and first accelerate forward, or when I brake at a stoplight, then accelerate. It's loud as hell. It's awful. I can't take it anymore.

Help! Any ideas as to where to look at this point!?!!?!
