Awesome video!
replacing idler pulley on 2000 Volvo s80
Perfect DIY!! All your videos are very detail and easy understandable!!
Great work!!
Also, what are the symptoms of these replaced parts–when failing? I read
that it feels like the rear is drifting. Could it be that one driving the
car would mistake the “rear” drift sensation as the whole car drifting?
that’s happening to me…whole car sensation. For a while I thought it wsa
the wind. But does it at highway speeds. Front ball joints etc, wheel
bearings etc were replaced in the front. I had struts put in about 2 years
ago as well, but not the springs. Rear suspension has not been touched by
me, and unlikely by prior owner 2+ years ago either.
Great video! You make it look easy. I guess having a lift helps, eh?
I did this job on my e38 a few months ago and pressing out the ball joint
was a major pain – the removal tools I borrowed from AutoZone wouldn’t fit,
and trying to make one with plumbing materials was a big waste of time. I
finally capitulated and bought the specific tool – about $110 new off ebay,
it’s a China knockoff but worked PERFECTLY and pressing out/in the
balljoint was a breeze with it. Worth every penny. My ball joints were
shot, but not nearly as bad as the one in this video. BTW – I did the
control arms and struts too, just to make things complicated and expensive
😉 ’99 e38 180,000 miles.
Great video. In the last 30 seconds you have a jack under the wheel
“somewhere” for ride height adjustment. Can you show where the jack is
actually placed? I didn’t think it was ok to use a jack anywhere but one of
the 6 jack points (1 in front, 1 in back, and 2 on each side)?
