If you are able to source something it may be sensible to also renew the rubbers.
Just a thought.

Thanks, I think one of the legs is still welded to the exhaust. Since my first post I've found this:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Volvo-Gen...oAAOSwFs1cLyD9
Which looks like it would fit, from one of the comments the clamp part is offset from where the welded legs are. This one says it will fit a XC70 but I've seen other similar clamps that say they don't fit the AWD models, like this one:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Volvo-Exh...-/190411346406
So if anyone knows the part number for the one that will fit an XC70 D5 could they let me know? Of the two I've found on ebay, looking at the photos I think there may be a difference between the two of them.
Based on your recommendation I'll renew the rubbers as well. Initially I was hoping not to, but it's probably best to do it at the same time.
Cheers
