Maybe someone can offer some help with this.
1998 C70 hpt, 97,000 miles. I have noticed a vibration coming from the front driver's side during tight right-hand turns at low speed (5-10 mph).
It does not happen all the time, and it seems to be just on that side.
Any ideas?
Thanks for any help.

I have the same problem with my '98 V70 AWD. Except mine rumbles when turning left. Dealer has replaced left wheel bearing and axle assembly ($1002--ouch!) and noise is still there.

I think I have the same problem, I hear a growl coming from the right side, when I turn around corners in a parking lot. I will let you know what I find out. My suspicion is the CV joints.

Thanks for the reply.
Mine comes and goes.
Thanks for any info or help.

After changing both front wheel bearing assemblies, rebuilding both front axles with no affect on the sound, I finally noticed that the front right engine mount was in bad shape. Half of the rubber foot had broken off and the engine was resting on a very thin layer of rubber if at all. This seemed to jive with the problem. Only when the engine was under power (rpms up), and I was turning left (engine leaning on right mount) did I hear the sound. The fix was easy (less than an hour) and now there is no noise or vibration. There's a good explanation of it in this brickboard (search for engine mount or motor mount, I forget how to get to it).

Check your bushings to see if a pot hole crushed one of them on the right side.

I had the bearings check by a Volvo tech about two months ago-checked out fine.
I have not hit any potholes.
Could it be the steering rack?
I have not felt any vibration for about a week now.
Thanks for the help.
