I have a Volvo 850 Turbo Wagon. I noticed that when I am accelerating there is a vibration. I am assuming that it is one of three things, the wheel bearing, axle or both. I wanted to know if there is anyone out there that could help me figure this out? I went the to the Junk Yard and found a 2000 V70. I noticed the the axle is different, but I was wondering if I changed out the V70 axle and wheel bearing would it work on my car? I was looking around and notice that they are almost the same beside a few small things. From one Volvo Love to another Thank you very much.

It might work but haven't tried it yet. The main things you will have to make sure of is the axle splines and ABS ring setup.

But you can buy a new or rebuilt axle pretty cheap.

I would check the inner joints on the axles first.

 

I know it sounds crazy, but also check to make sure the wheel lug nuts are torqued tightly. This can also cause a wierd vibrationamong other things (don't ask how I know this!)
