Most front wheel drive and all wheel drive Volvos utilize a link style transmission mount installed between the transmission and the engine sub frame. This mount is designed to limit the twisting torque of the power train under acceleration. The mount has two bushings in it and the larger of the two bushings is very soft and prone to premature failure, which allows the engine and transmission to over torque, stressing other mounts and noticeably reducing performance and shifting smoothness.
