View Full Version : V70 AWD jaymac 10-04-2005, 03:18 PM Hi Just got a 1998 V70 awd noticed a soft whine/whistle noticable at startup presume it is there allthe time but not noticable once speed is up to 20-30 ish Is this the nature of the beast? all help appreciated Thanks Jaymac tech 10-04-2005, 08:57 PM That might be the nature of the beast. What kind of service work has been done and how many miles? jaymac 10-05-2005, 09:08 AM Thanks All service has been done at required periods by volvo the car has just done 48000 miles the noise is almost fanlike but no fans going. tech 10-05-2005, 09:45 PM Ok I just wanted to make sure the car didn't have alot of miles on it. I think it is just the nature of the beast. jaymac 10-06-2005, 09:22 AM Thanks Tech Jaymac skamper 02-13-2006, 03:32 AM I have the same car, same year, & same problem, A humming/whinning sound when cold on start up for maybe 10-60 seconds under load or when reving. no noise when warm. The noise appears to be from around the timing cover area or belts I thinking Power steering pump? Whirling sound i get sounds like a noisy ford power steering pump?. However I can't be 100% sure I'm Also open for ideas. Also have a question about my 98 v70 xc awd. Does any one who drives a v70 turbo know if the turbo is quiet ? I don't hear it spooling up or whinning under accel or load. It dosnt feel like a turbo car? is this a normal for the v70 turbo Thanks Greg q tech 02-13-2006, 09:02 PM ORIGINAL: skamper I have the same car, same year, & same problem, A humming/whinning sound when cold on start up for maybe 10-60 seconds under load or when reving. no noise when warm.

If you see any grease at all on the pulley or seal then you need to have it replaced. How many miles are on the car? |
