    Tailgate Rattle

    Oh! I see you have the tailgate rattle blues.

    Common problem in 740, 850, v70 wagons. I guess Volvo does not know yet how to make a sturdy rattle free tailgate.

    But don't worry my friend, there is a permanent fix, no duct tape or glue. Get a tailgate repair kit from the dealer or eEuroparts.com that comes with new clips, metal reinforcers and instructions, for about $20.00

    I have done both the 740 wagon and V70 and now tailgate is quiet.
