Hi.
I try to read something more about first generation volvo's AWD but I cant find many in the net. The only thing I find is they use a GKN viscous coupling. So I want to know something more about it - is it better or worst than haldex. Does the first generation AWD use electronic or it is only mechanical.
Thanks.
