►The trailing arm bushing that Volvo put in the V60 and S60 rear suspension is susceptible to reasonably rapid wear, and from that, they'll need regular replacements. The bushings are the main contributor to locating the articulation of the entire trailing arm, playing a significant role in the rear suspension. However, that role puts the bushing under tremendous stress, so their lifespan isn't very long. As they degrade, the rubber within the bushing splits and rips, ruining the majority of the bushing's necessary qualities.
Some signs of worn bushings are a vague and floaty rear-end, a squeaking from the rear over bumps, and the inability to reach the proper rear suspension alignment specs. Replacing the bushing isn't a monumental task, but it will require an alignment after the process. The alignment process may be avoided if the bushing is replaced while the arm remains in the car, but that will make the job a bit tougher.
Follow along as FCP Euro's Volvo catalog manager, Adam Goral, takes you through how to replace the rear trailing arm bushings on a P3 Volvo V60.

Thanks for sharing, just finished this job on my 2010 XC70 d5. Wasn't easy to do on the driveway without a lift, but doable. The car handles a lot better now. Well worth the effort.

Do you have to remove the coil spring or strut? Other videos of old Volvo models didn’t remove spring. I am thinking about replacing whole trailing control arm. Not sure how easy to complete the job on driveway. I do have big wooden ramps to support the car. Thank you.

It's amazing that with as long as we've been working on cars, and they're so tech intensive, that we all seem to use chunks of wood at some point during repair 🙂

Thanks for this video. It is nice to watch them. Always learning something new. The bushings of my Volvo are still good but good to know there is an alternative to the original ones. Keep up the good work. Kind regards from the Netherlands.

Thank you for your video. Do you have to remove the coil spring? I am thinking about replacing whole rear trailing control arm for my 2012 xc60. Right now it makes squeaky noise and getting worse and worse. Btw, my car is 2012 xc60 fwd 3.2 l

Bought the trailing arm bushings from fcpeuro. It’s not an easy job on driveway, but it’s doable with pushing tool. Unfortunately, one big 18mm bolt thread was shot, anyone knows that what is the thread pitch. The 2x18 mm bolt thread is 14mm, length is 42mm. My thread in one hole is messed up. Try to find out what the thread pitch is. It’s not m14x1.25, compared with spark plug. It could be m14x2? Or m14x1.5? Could anyone double check it for me? I need buy a tap to fix the thread. Thank you

Could you not just press in with a big c-clamp? Im planning on doing it without pulling the arm completely off and dont know if finding the press tool is possible. Thanks

Im just curious. Can this bushing cause severe clunking when going over small bumps at low speeds? I am beting its the subframe bushes, but i have not got the opportunity to inspect it. Its my fathers car.

Got full set front and back over 1200€ no instructions as u are saying and no grease. Now waiting for mechanics to finish fitting hope it was worth to spend those money.

is 381mm also for the Cross Country models?

I hope so

@rupedog 3 ай бұрын

Pretty sure this is the same as the mk4 mondeo, galaxy etc so you can do both sides in an hour without removing the arm from the car, using the special press tool.

Hi. I se what you are trying to do here. And im all for it. But you need to take this video down. This is all wrong. The bushings need to be mounted propperly, and they are suposed to go at a spesific angle. Wich is why you need the spesial tool you mention. By Just pressing them in, you wil get exessive tyre ware. The poly bushes you fitt, wil not keep the trailing arm in the corect angle. Ok for track use i guess, but not for every day use. Also, cutting the bushings like you did release some toxic fumes. You defenetly dont want to breathe them in. How do i know? I am a Volvo master tech, i have had to redo many many cars where somone Who does not know how to do this propperly, has done what you have done here. Btw, changing both these bushings at the dealer takes no more then 1.5 hours, for both.

I get that, but since the black part and the purple part are independent of each other, won't it self align the 1st time it's under load?

@@donstevens7847 its suposed to be at an angle, unless the Black part has a spesific angle engine red into it, i doubt it wil be corect. And it wil be subject to wear, and incorecrt fittment .

I was thinking this, but I guess the manufacturer of these parts has had them tried and tested.
