RE: front drivers side knocking grumbling noise on bumps??

I previously thought it was a bit floaty on the steering but I think you get used to ithings and probably only notice the change when it gets fixed or you drive another one! I best get it looked at then. Are all those things obvious to a good mechanic and easy to replace? I don't use the main stealer so will my normal chap be able to identify those things and fix it or does it help to have someone who works on Volvo's all the time. Sorry for being so crap!

A good mechanic should have no problem diagnosing any of the above. They should also be routinely checked as part of an annual inspection/MoT. Most car suspension setups are variations on a common theme. Volvo's, because of their size and weight, are notoriously hard on some front suspension components, though it does also depend on driving style and type of roads used. Not sure of cost of parts as I have yet to have these problems with my car.

Sheffield roads are all completely knackered! Cheers for your help, I shall take it to my normal mecanic. I did notice that the top engine mount is split when I had the bonnet open so guess I should get that done at the same time. Thanks again.

I had the drop link on the driver's side of my V70 D5 renewed at 38k miles and 4th year service. The noise was just as you describe but very low volume. The mechanic who is a Volvo specialist but not a dealer said that it was not an MOT fail at that stage but would need replacing within the next 6 months, or so. HTH Mick
