v70 steering wheel judder over bumps

gjuk · May 13th, 2013, 11:00

Hi guys,

I think it's about time I looked at my 132,000 mile v70 T5. It's always had steering wheel judder to some degree though it's getting a little worse.

Any idea of part which go around this kind of miles. Am I looking at a complete engine mount replacement program here?

Thanks

Jon

I have had a similar problem with another make of car. There was play in the steering rack that caused it. Might be worth jacking the car up and holding each front wheel and 3 & 9 o'clock positions and feeling for any play. There was quite a bit of play on my car's offside wheels and a new rack cured it. Could also be worn track rod ends? Two possibilities.
