Default Volvo Newbie

Hi, I bought a 2002 Volvo S60 T5 and a 2001 XC70. We switched over from the economy car world for safety reasons since we just had a baby. We love the cars and I am learning the quirks about Volvo's as I go.

The S60 has 124k miles and the XC70 has 174k miles. They seem to have been well cared for.

It seems as though both cars have identical axle issues. Outer wear on tires followed quickly by some vibration during acceleration. Is this a known problem during 2001-2002?

Welcome to VF. That is cool that you got two volvos. You need to post up some pictures when you have a chance.
