I am replacing my bad Haldex pump (2005 XC70). I have VIDA and am fairly clear on most steps but I have a few questions for those who've done this before.
My car has the big AOC damper that has to be removed. I'm little confused about how to give the rear driveshaft enough room to move forward out of the damper. VIDA MANUAL STATES:"Note! for cars with damper...the center bearing member should be removed and the propeller shaft fully tilted to free the rear joint"
QUESTION 1) how far down does the driveshaft center bearing member need to move to free the shaft at the rear? Volvo manual says to leave forward exhaust system on the car but the driveshaft center bearing member is directly above the converter.
QUESTION 2) the nuts and studs that connect my cat-back part of the exhaust to the cat converter are impossibly rusted (just a lump of rust)..any advice on how to deal with this? or can I get away with just lowering the whole exhaust a bit??
Thanks in advance!
