These can be replaced with XC90 driveshaft bolts, but do some research on this forum, it has been discussed at length.
The clunk ,or double clunk,seems to come from the front off side.I expect it could be driveshaft bolts or maybe a driveshaft spline.The noise has got louder since I have had the car (6 weeks)plus it has a loud growl when accelerating .It is under warranty,so it will be going back to the dealer tomorrow.I asked about the 'clunk'on this forum to get as much information as possible before taking it back.My experience with dealers has not been good in my lifetime,so I try to stay one step in front of the game. The information I have had from here has been a great help,thank you.
