Some common issues with the Volvo V70r AWD include a leak in the angle gear of 5-cylinder AWD models from years 2001 to 2006. Addressing oil leakage or moisture from the angle gear can usually be fixed by resealing the housing and replacing the seals, without needing to replace the gear itself. However, if there are signs of angle gear noise or binding while driving, or if there is backlash, bearing damage, or excessive pinion shaft play detected during disassembly, it may be necessary to replace the angle gear instead of attempting to reseal it. Many owners reported this problem, prompting Volvo to release a service bulletin about it.
