Dirry front wheels x40
X4O It took me an hour to just clean the oil, greese and dirt from the 2 front wheels. Does anybody know a better way to do this?

Hi

I had some grease on one of my V50 wheels and it was a split CV boot causing it.

Dirty wheel X40
Thanks for your reply. According to Volvo Brisbane (they are very unhelpful) this is 'normal'. They can't do noting about it?

there should not be any oil or grease on your wheels just brake dust . check for failed cv joint boot and also look for any oil leaks from drive shaft seals is the problem on both sides is one side worse than the other a good inspection is needed to determine where the oil / grease is coming from do you have any brake problems?
