Hi. Now I bought my dream car with me. Volvo V70T5R. I'll pick him up next Saturday. Such a beautiful car. Completely original! Total, with cassette radio. I understand you. Never sell! Mine stays with me forever now.
I did a ”Haldex service” on a V60 once wasn’t that bad. But I guess that when you have been an apprentice at a authorized Volvo garage, had access to a lift and where surrounded by clever “Volvo technicians” (some where also Renault technicians too), than most things tend to be easier at home. I tell you one thing, the French philosophy of putting everything thing if front or on top of everything, nearly drove me mad. But my experience doing “some” work on Renaults has made calmer when doing “tricky” or “annoying” work on Volvos, it may be “harder” than what it should be in a perfect world, but at least it is not a Renault.
The big difference between the XC70 in VolvoSweden's video and our R's is that the P3 cars use Haldex Gen 4. Haldex Gen 4 you can *barely* wiggle the AOC pump out without removing the driveshaft or exhaust. Everything else in the procedure is nearly identical. But his trick to get the AOC pump in and out by grinding a tiny bit off of the casing *will not work* on our R's or any other P2 AWD Volvo. One thing that wasn't mentioned but shown in the timelapse - please please *please* mark your driveshaft between the coupler and the companion flange with a paint marker. This will allow you to put your driveshaft back on in the same rotational position as it came off and aids in avoiding unwelcome vibrations. I would personally also mark the position of the coupler to the AOC casing itself so that can go back in the same way as well. Both if my R's had loose heatshielding underneath creating a quiet scraping sound, this is a great time to remedy that issue as well as doing any angle gear service or exhaust work.
Not actually all P3 cars have haldex 4. To my surprise when I did the service on my '08 XC70 it had haldex 3. I think early P3 models up to 2009 still used haldex 3, because volvosweden's car is '09 and already has haldex 4.
Those hand jacks really should only be used in an emergency as they can fail relatively easily. I speak from experience, I had a Ford jack suddenly strip the screw threads and subsequently the vehicle dropped. If you do use them, make sure the threads are well lubricated.
How did you determine that the pump was actually bad? Did VIDA/DICE throw a code?... I'm trying to troubleshoot my 04 V70R AWD, but I don't have any codes at the dash. Want to make sure I order ALL the parts I need before doing this crazy teardown.
Haldex Service isn't as bad as a few other things I can think of... Did mine with all 4 wheels off the ground on stands - and it isn't a too bad job. I will say, I am glad mine never lived in the northeast rust belt - it's nowhere near as rusty on the driveshaft.
Too superficial. Even with a hoist, the job is not for a DIY'er. VolvoSweden's video is excellent but it's for a Haldex 4 and 5. The real issue with a Haldex 3 is removing the driveshaft. A factory exhaust does not need to be removed. The details missing include installing the pinion retaining nut that must be properly torqued. While you're at it, consider replacing the driveshaft pinion seal. As well, replace the filter and inspect the control module. Another missing item is replacing the fluid procedure using only Haldex approved (Volvo or VW) expensive gear oil.
Oops. On the older 850, you Jack the right front wheel, and put a torque wrench on the axle nut, it should turn the wheel at about 70 lbs. is it the same on the 2006?
Attempting mine..( 2006 xc70)..this week..( I bought a kit from IPD)...my rear drive is currently not working...I’m currently thinking of farming it out.
i have a ford 500 with this haldex what a freaking nightmare code p1889 traction control light on replaced fluid filter pump abs cant get it to shut off did the tsb by ford which is as useful as joe biden that did nothing traction light still no awd

Another good tip for all volvo awd owners is thermal wrap on yor exhaust. Wraped near propshaft cv joints will save the lubricant inside joints.
The filter and oil can be changed with exhaust and drive shaft still in place.

Great call! Pinned this comment for those that want to do this work themselves.
@@ShiftingLanes There's also a small mistake in the description, stating that volvosweden's video is haldex 3 ;-)

@@johannessoonik1007 Ah, yes I forgot. 2008 was a transition year from Haldex 3 to Haldex 4.

Would you have the unedited footage of the actual labour ?

I see your comment is 2 years old now, but did you ever find what was wrong with the haldex and how?

I’m looking to buy an 06xc. Is there an easy test to see if the awd is working. On my manual 97 850awd

Premature send, there.

Is my 2004 xc90 the same as this? My isn’t working 👎🏽! I want the xc90 V8 R design 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽bad ass
I didn't learn a thing from this video.
Nor did I. Thumbs down.
do you still have the stock peg wheels?
I want them on the car when you sell it to me- thanks Bro !
How about new drag race between the 3 Volvos!
Its coming 🙂
When reading comments and a commercial resets the page: 😣
Wish there was a RWD conversion 😒
Well you could do it. But the issue is many of the rear axles on these Volvos are tiny and would probably break from the torque.
Next service video should be replacing the clutch on the M66 SR?!!!
Clutch on that car is fine.
ShiftingLanes are you guys planning on upgrading clutch kit?!
How do I know which Haldex a 2013 XC70 has? Thanks
4th gen is on xc70 2013
Terrible video! You talk way too much!
He really does nothing but talk
I need to change the pump Haldex 3 and it looks like a involved deal with removing not necessary the drive shaft but the flange. Poorly engineered!
Anyone know the definitive numbers on the 6 speed v70Rs. My 04 is mint.... I am not far from these dud3ds either
It's all on wikipedia
Informational? Don’t you mean informative!
i had that jack slip out on me twice. its garbage
Ooooooo girl!
i have a ford 500 with this haldex what a freaking nightmare code p1889 traction control light on replaced fluid filter pump abs cant get it to shut off did the tsb by ford which is as useful as joe biden that did nothing traction light still no awd
So easy to do. Anyone can do this. Waste of money sending it to the shop. You should not own one of these caRs if you cannot work on it yourself
Get to the point! Blah blah
No
This video is not good. Way too much blabbering. Not enough instruction. Thumbs down.
