my 2001 s40 (80,000 miles) had developed a vibration problem. When I
drive at 40-50 mph the front vibrates/shakes. Sometimes this occurs at
30mph. I got the tires balance, that didn't fix the problem. Took it
to the volvo dealer, they said:
- the front left/right drive axle shafts are worn and needs to be
replaced (cost $1500)(wow).
took it to pep boys and after their inspection the mechanic said that
the axles seem fine, maybe its a tranmission problem, they can rebuild
both sides for under $400. Any advice on if it is an axle or
tranmission problem.
Thanks
