Heavy Vibration when turning left
I currently own a 1998 V70R.
Every time I turn left, reguadless of speed, there's heavy vibration throughout.
The thighter the turn, the heavier the vibration.
I have just replaced the right/front engine mount, upper poly mount, lower poly transmission mount with significant success.
Now, I was wondering, how to replace the left engine mount if it's the culprit. And is it hard to do?
I'm also hearing a humming/houling intermitent sound(not sure if it's coming from the front or back).
At low speeds, sound is not heard. Only until speed increases, the sound is heard and as the speed further increases so does the intermitent sound.
Can someone please help?

Tech,
How difficult would it be to do-it-yourself and can U suggest any place to get a simple diagram for removing the driveshaft?

The motor mount is easy to replace. 4 screws and it is swapped out. You will need to jack the motor up a little bit.
For the driveshaft there is 6 screws on each end holding it in there. Then you will need to remove the plate housing the carrier bearing and remove the driveshaft.
This is the best I can do for a pic.

Thanks All!
Your information was enough for me to successfully remove the drive shaft...no more thumping noise!
Front-wheel drive seems OK for now...will see how I adjust when the snow arrives.
