Hi All

Any ideas as to why our 08 XC70 AWD has developed pronounced negative camber to the rear wheels over the last few years? A squeak has also returned that was cured about 6 years ago by replacing rear bushes (I don't know which ones but it was a big job) but negative camber wasn't an issue then so not sure if it is related. An inspection on a ramp last night didn't find any play in any bushes. It is now a particular problem because it has just chewed the inside edges off rear tyres in a lot less than 10k miles whereas in the past I was astonished by how long the tyres lasted.

Thanks
