ABS rings for Volvo S70 2.4
Finding the right ABS ring for your Volvo S70 2.4 is crucial for both safety and proper function. This specific model, renowned for its reliable five-cylinder engine, requires components that match original specifications so the anti-lock braking system operates optimally. A defective ABS ring is a common issue on older vehicles, but with the correct spare part you can easily restore your car's safety features. At CVJoint24 we specialise in these exact components, meaning we understand the technical nuances of the Volvo S70 2.4. Our range is carefully selected to meet rigorous standards for durability and precision in demanding European conditions.
What does the ABS ring do on a Volvo S70 2.4?
The ABS ring, often called a reluctor ring or tone wheel, plays a central role in your car's braking system. It is mounted on the CV joint and rotates together with the wheel. A sensor reads the teeth of the ring and transmits wheel speed data to the car's electronic control unit. If the control unit detects that a wheel is about to lock up during braking, it modulates the brake pressure to maintain steering control. For a Volvo S70 2.4, this system is precisely calibrated to handle the car's weight and power delivery. Without a functioning ABS ring, the system cannot receive accurate data, disabling crucial safety functions and illuminating warning lights on the dashboard.
Common signs of wear
The most common issue with an ABS ring on a Volvo S70 2.4 is cracking caused by corrosion. When rust forms underneath the ring, the material expands, eventually causing the ring to split. Symptoms are usually evident: the ABS warning light illuminates, or you feel a pulsing sensation through the brake pedal during normal, low-speed braking. Occasionally, the traction control system may also trigger false warnings. As the Volvo S70 2.4 is a front-wheel-drive saloon, the front rings endure significant exposure to road salt and moisture. If you notice unusual brake behaviour, inspect the condition of the rings promptly before it leads to an MOT failure.
How to choose the correct ABS ring
When purchasing a replacement ABS ring, it is essential to check the specifications carefully. For the Volvo S70 2.4, variations exist depending on the production year and equipment level. The most critical dimensions to confirm are the tooth count and inner diameter. A ring with the wrong number of teeth will produce incorrect speed signals, preventing the ABS from functioning correctly. To ensure you receive a part that fits, simply select your car's make, model and engine variant in our store. This is the most reliable way to filter out the exact ABS reluctor ring required for your specific Volvo S70 2.4, saving time and hassle during installation.
Related parts to inspect
You may also wish to check these exact pages for the same vehicle when working on the ABS ring:
When one drivetrain component shows signs of wear, neighbouring parts on the same vehicle often warrant inspection too. By comparing these specific categories for the Volvo S70 2.4, it is easier to determine whether an issue lies with the ABS ring itself or another part of the driveline.
This is particularly relevant on models where vibrations, play and unwanted noises can transfer symptoms across interconnected drivetrain parts. A quick check of related categories reduces the risk of replacing one correct part while overlooking an adjacent component that affects the same fault.

Frequently asked questions about ABS rings for Volvo S70 2.4
How do I know if the ABS ring on my Volvo S70 2.4 is damaged?
The most common signs are the ABS warning light illuminating on the dashboard or the brake pedal pulsating when braking at low speeds. A visual inspection will often reveal if the ring has cracked due to rust.
Can I replace just the ABS ring, or do I need to replace the entire CV joint?
On a Volvo S70 2.4, you can readily replace just the ABS ring provided the CV joint itself is otherwise in good condition. This is a cost-effective solution compared to replacing the complete joint.
Why do ABS rings crack on the Volvo S70?
This is usually caused by corrosion. Rust forms between the CV joint and the ring, creating outward pressure that eventually causes the metal ring to crack.
Do all ABS rings fit every Volvo S70 model?
No, there are variations in the number of teeth and the diameter. It is therefore essential to select your exact model and engine variant to ensure you receive the correct part for your 2.4.
What happens if I drive with a cracked ABS ring?
The car's ABS will not function properly, increasing the risk of the wheels locking up under heavy braking. In addition, the car will fail its annual inspection (MOT) with an illuminated ABS warning light.
Is a fitment guarantee included when I buy an ABS ring from you?
Yes, we always provide a fitment guarantee when you select your specific vehicle details when ordering, so you can be confident the part will fit your Volvo S70 2.4 perfectly.
