Driveshaft CV Joint, AWD XC - P80 V70
Genuine Volvo 30614441 - 236609
Product Description
In AWD Volvos, the driveshaft/propeller shaft connects the transmission (via the angle gear) to the rear axle. The rubber boot protecting the driveshaft's front CV joint tends to prematurely crack and tear thanks to the heat of the nearby exhaust downpipe; unlike, say, front axle joints, a failed boot here is so far underneath the car that you may only notice it after it's flung out all of its grease and the joint has started clicking or vibrating.
This kit replaces this troublesome front CV joint of your V70's AWD driveshaft (the rear CV joint is not replaceable). The kit includes everything you need to completely R&R the joint, including the CV joint itself, joint c-clip, boot cover and gaskets, boot clips, joint cover/end cap, and grease.
Product Fitment Notes & Potential Issues
For vehicles where the angle gear companion flange that the propshaft bolts to has an outer diameter of 95 mm.
This kit can only be used on vehicles with the original propeller shaft. If your front joint has "NTN" stamped on the side, this joint will not work.
Only for front CV joints. For rear CV joints the entire propeller shaft must be replaced.

Many may not know this but Volvo in Latin roughly translates to "to roll". The company was founded back in 1927 by Assar Gabrielsson and Gustaf Larsson as a spin-off from ball-bearing manufacturer SKF. While the Volvo logo looks like the biology symbol for male, it's really the Swedish symbol for Iron. With a nod to its heritage in alloys, Volvo chose a logo that depicted a ring bisecting at one o’clock. Today Volvo is known around the world as one of the most iconic brands known for safety, longevity, and its enthusiast following.

Available to Order means the item may not be in our warehouse but is readily available from one or more supplier warehouses. After you order it, we will get it for you ASAP.
Products from major brand names are almost always in stock in the manufacturer’s domestic warehouse. These suppliers have good fill rates, but even if they are out of stock, we may be able to source it from a variety of alternative wholesale sources.
We are at the most a week away from all these warehouses, usually much less. Does that mean we will always have your product available within that window? Honestly, we can't promise that but we’ll do everything we can to get your parts to you in a timely manner.
