Frequently asked questions about outer CV joints for Volvo V70 T5
How do I know if my Volvo V70 T5 needs a new outer CV joint?
The most common sign is a clicking noise from the front axle when turning, especially under acceleration. Vibrations in the steering wheel and grease sprayed onto the wheel rim are also clear indications.
Can I replace just the boot instead of the entire CV joint?
Yes, if you detect damage to the CV boot early before dirt has entered and worn the joint itself, replacing the boot and repacking it with fresh grease may be sufficient.
Is there a difference in CV joints between manual and automatic V70 T5 models?
Yes, there can be differences in the spline count and shaft dimensions depending on the gearbox type. Always select your car's exact make, model and engine variant to ensure the correct fit.
What happens if I drive with a worn outer CV joint?
If the joint fails completely, the car will lose drive, leaving you stranded. In the worst-case scenario, a broken joint can cause severe damage to the suspension and brake lines.
Are fitting accessories such as grease and clamps included in the kit?
Yes, our outer CV joints are supplied as complete kits containing the CV joint, CV boot, specialist grease, clamps and fitting bolt or nut.
How long does it take to replace an outer CV joint on a V70?
For an experienced mechanic, the job typically takes between 1 and 2 hours per side, depending on how seized the old components are.
