Im getting tired

000chance000 · Jul 11th, 2011, 09:49

One thing after the other with my S60, now the car is strting to make a noise from the front end drivers side (which is left) and im sure its not wheel bearings as the noise is there from about 10 mph, and gets real bad around 60-70mph and a lot of vibration.
I can feel vibration through the steering and the accelerater pedel (auto) the steering feels tight as well..
Plus i brought alloys yesterday which are volvo but the wrong size the center circle on my car is about 65mm and on the wheels its 60mm, is there a wheel kit i can get to solve this?????????

You havn't put them other wheels on by any chance??? ;-) Might make a funny noise with them on...

no sorry there is nothing you could do about the center bore size other than get the wheels machined out to fit, if there gen volvo as far as im aware there all the same center bore size!!! a lil confused my self however your noise does sound like a wheel bearing but i would also look at the driveshaft ie cv joint as these seem to be a weak point on volvos

Thanks very much, i think its wheel bearings as well to be honest, but i think there are a few other problems as well,, another turn in the garage i suppose. thanks again.

No i havent put them on, lol, but spoke to a a wheel shop today and they said they can bore them out for me, but that worries me a bit, but the guy said its no problem its only 1.5 mm.
So i was told today there are two sizes 65mm and 63.5mm on volvo's but some of the cars from the 50's and 60's have got 60mm........

Thanks again.

vibrations and noise can possibly com from shafts.

Check the oil level in the steering pump reservoir

Who says he fixed it yet

I'm tired too, of people who post a problem, get lots of replies and then disappear without a trace. Would be helpful to know if any of the suggestions ever fixed a problem.
