So, my car has been riding the springs in the back for a good week or so... I decided to put it up on a lift and learned that its leaking black goo. Lucky me. New suspension time. So figured Id just replace the whole set with some konis or something. Of course not. They HAVE to be the Nivomat. Lovely. So, Volvo has decided these things are worth roughly $450 to them. All so I can easier load packages into my R car, lol. Youd think that would only be an option on the XCs or something. anyway... that was my rant... Any idea why they choose to use these things?

 

Because of the AWD system.

 

My 1998 T5 didnt have it did it? It was awd
