If you hear creaking, groaning or knocking from the front of your Volvo when turning sharp, it could mean the upper strut mounts and bearings are in need of replacement.
The strut assembly should turn lock to lock without binding or kinking when the front end is properly supported. If it doesn't, you may want to have it inspected and consider replacement for safe operation. Also look for evidence of rubber separating from bearing.
Aftermarket parts are a reasonably priced and good alternative to OE products. We often supply aftermarket products in place of OE parts that are no longer available as well.
Some items will be better than stock or considered an upgrade from the OE design in the aftermarket brand.
Other items will work as a less expensive alternative to stock.
We will not sell a product that we do not believe in, so rest assured you are fine with the aftermarket brand in most applications!
If you have any questions, contact our customer service team to advise on the best aftermarket products for your Volvo.
