Thanks for the video. Is it necessary to remove the brace at the top of the engine? Seems unrelated to me, but perhaps there is a reason.

guys I replaced this same part on my xc70 by just directly unbolting it, none of the other steps were necessary for me, correct me if I'm wrong but it's the same setup so it should work with this.

Can you provide torque specs for the torque strut? Sue from 1A always provides the torque and angle settings.

What symptoms are noticed with bad torque mounts? I'm getting a bad rumble or vibration sound when pulling away but goes away after a gear change and less acceleration.

Is there a difference to the V70 2? There is no need on the V70 2 to remove upper parts - only the mount underneath., without any lifting or support necessary. What happens if you do so on the XC90?

What happened to changing the rear engine mount?

What's the part number for this part

SAME style as Ford Five Hundred. They colluded with Volvo on that car. Ford made it worse making bushing using a ONE PIECE aluminum bar. PLUS, the Ford bushing(mount), is TERRIBLE quality-wise. They break up in 1-2 years easily. Difficult to replace the bushing mount in-car. Looks easy!! OR, about 180 or so to replace entire aluminum bar, with bushing mount built in. Your choice.
