I noticed these days that my Volvo S60 had some noise when I drove on any uneven road. The noiseseemed to come from somewhere behind my ear. I removed everything in the trunk and back seats but the noise was still there. Also, when the clutch hits the biting point(this is a manual car), meaning the car starts to shake a little, I can also hear this noise. The noise is like: Z..Z..Z, not very loud but annoying. Does anyone know what the problems can be? Suspension, Engine mount? thanks!

 

I have the same but dont know, Is it normal..?

 

I have the same issue I think. I have a 53 Reg s60 2.0T and Ihave a noise from the rear drivers side that sounds like something vibrating.

I emptied out the boot and spare tyre etc but it was still there. I then thought it may be the 'floor' of the boot rattling so i lined it with foam round the edge and it was still there so I tried taking that out as well.

Still the noise continues. My local dealership is stumped but one of the mechanics said he has heard the same complaint before. I read on another forum that it may be the hand brake linkage?

Any other ideas anyone?

 

Rattly damper?

 

How would I check forthat PRM?

Unfortunately I'm notvery technically gifted!!

 

Bounce the car up and down to see if it settles, it should be quite stiff, also look underneath at the shocker to see if its leaking any oil.
