Default Body roll

Hi,

I've had the pleasure of owning my car for a while now. One of the biggest bugbears I have is the body roll are there any recommended cures for this please?

Thanks

Thicker sway bars (aka anti-roll bars) are the answer.

To see some, go to www.ipdusa.com. The company, with which I've no connection, has an interesting selection of Volvo stuff but their sway bar kits are their signature product line.

Also worth checking the play in the rear sway bars aka UK rear drop links NB get the rear tracking checked - it is amazing what 4-wheel tracking adjustment will do for any P2 S60, S80 or V70.
