I have just bought a mk1 v70 xc. It is the last 2000 year before the shape change.

I have what sounds like a dry bearing noise and vibration through the gear stick. When I put the auto box in neutral the noise goes away. I am pretty sure it’s not the gearbox but either the prop bearing or the transfer box.

I took the prop off but the bearing feels good. No play and the outer rubber that holds it in place is also good. I presume the transfer box is where the front prop shaft goes into! I wanted to check the oil but can’t see anywhere where the drain is or indeed where to re fill. Can someone enlighten me please

Thanks.
