Front end knock S80

posted by  someone claiming to be Mark P. on  Thu Feb 28 15:26 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I own a 2000 S80 T6 with 25000 miles. Have recently noticed a knocking noise coming from the front driver side suspension over rough pavement at low speed. It sounds like something is loose. I don't believe it's brake related, and when the car is rocked up and down on that front driver side corner, I'm hearing a slight knock. The ball joints were replaced 1500 miles ago. Has anyone had an experience which sounds like this? Other than these problems, the car has been great for two years.

New ball joints in less than 25,000 miles? That sounds sort of strange. Is there a story behind this?

Had my 99 S80 in the shop for a knock/Popping sound about 2 weeks ago, it was a cracked "Spring Seat bracket" The dealer replaced parts on both side and also added an "O-ring" per a Volvo campaign because the tech continued to hear a pop after his first repair....All warranty and seems solid know....
