Inspect the front control arm bushings and perhaps the spring seats

Could it be the steering pressure low at idle, when raising the speed it then seems normal?

Looks like Edd China answers the question in his new youtube channel. At the 10 min 30sec mark

Great video... I like watching Edd. He's very knowledgeable & Wheeler Dealers just isn't the same without him, in my opinion.
To the original poster, it looks like there's a few things to check, according to Edd; -Wheel alignment. -Power steering fluid may need to be flushed/replaced. -Check your tyres are good & that you actually have the correct ones fitted to your vehicle (including the correct offset alloys).

And make sure any wheel spacers are removed (if fitted) because they upset steering and suspension geometry

Hi Kev
Thanks for your reply what do you mean by offset alloys ? The wheels are original, why do i need an offset? |

Hi John
Thanks for your reply How would the oil low pressure keeps pushing the wheel to the extreme angle on each side? |

Update - 4 wheels alignment at vovlo - no difference
Quote:
Today I took it to Volvo and they performed a 4 wheels alignment, it cost me 160 pounds and did not do much difference. Now their chief technician is asking me to ask other owners of the same model if theirs' do the same !!!! I am pretty sure the answer will be no; meanwhile he will look at answers and so I will do. if we don't reach any solutions then i will have to take it there anew for a consultancy with UK central Volvo then Sweden ! |
