Volvo V70R Angle Gear Collar Removal How To, S60R xc90 s70 xc70

[@jacklumber6242]

Nice and helpful video for us do it yourself mechanics.

[@salvobrothers5928]

awesome, that was the goal

[@scottrees9610]

Wow! So nice to have a narrator and mechanics helping out. Great information. So, that darn collar is what kills the rear drive. Time to take on the job now!

[@salvobrothers5928]

glad we could help get ready for anything, you got it!

[@ZIAD2122]

Ive taken my control arm many times and used the hole once but an easier way is take a chain wrap it around the control arm, take a longer pry bar stick it through the chain underneath the arm and prey down, insane leverage and only way i can do it by myself

[@salvobrothers5928]

thats a really good idea thanks for that!

[@KACHOW509]

I’m about to do this same job on my V70R and this video was excellent

[@doug1641]

Looks like having the exhaust out of the way made it much easier!

[@salvobrothers5928]

for sure, it clears up a lot of room to work around it

[@highlandaecfan5372]

Brilliant video guys just brilliant as my 2004 V70 D5 wagon Big Helga will get this done soon as a bit of pampering to keep her sweet.

[@salvobrothers5928]

yea buddy best thing to do before it gets too bad.

[@scottrees9610]

I used a blind hole/ pilot bearing kind of puller to rather easily pop that splined shaft out. I bought a set off of Amazon and it contained 8 sizes and it took size 7, and included a cute slide hammer that did the job. Inserting the new one back in takes some hammer tapping until you hear the sound change. This is something I didn't see covered. But great vid though!

[@salvobrothers5928]

yea there are plenty of ways to get the job done, figured putting the collar back in was pretty self explanatory

[@4LitreJeeper]

Man, this sheds so much light on the angle gear for me. I've got a 04 s60r that's leaking from I'm guessing the trans seal since its leaking between the trans and angle gear the best I can tell. Thanks for posting this!

[@salvobrothers5928]

yea man no problem, id replace all the seals in there so you don't have to worry about anything leaking later

[@4LitreJeeper]

@@salvobrothers5928 Sounds like a plan. Just gotta figure out which ones I need to order and hope I can borrow a friends lift to do it!

[@salvobrothers5928]

Probably leaking from the oil return tube on the turbo. Very common. The angle gear has to come out to fix...total PITA. Removing that big thing to change $10 of gaskets & seals on a turbo return tube. Thanks Volvo engineers!

What year and transmission is this? Trying to figure out if a 2006XC with an AW55 would have that green ring. I just replaced the two collar sleeve seals, but still have a trans fluid leak.

A blind hole puller is the tool for this job, has it pulled out in seconds no need to cut or grind

[@salvobrothers5928]

thanks for the info ill have to check it out

[@Hiebyke]

Nice video, So if I understand correctly for the automatic the bolts will be on the left side? And do you know by any chance what exact fluid you used for the transmission and also the angle gear? Thanks mate!

[@salvobrothers5928]

its been a while i know we covered the fluids we used in the video not sure about where the bolts are coming in for an auto and all that

Great video.. thanks

[@darylrobert3673]

ive removed one by hand ive had another removed by heat and a 5tonne puller. Im currently having issues with the AG leaking from everywhere.

[@salvobrothers5928]

yea were having that same problem

[@kgalvin28]

Amazing video! I’m assuming the exhaust has to come out…

[@salvobrothers5928]

yea it definitely does

[@agibby5]

Nice video! how many hours did this job take you? I've been putting it off for years but the wife's XC90 doesn't have 4x4 and it would be nice to have it. I am worried at this point if we fix the front collar, is anything wrong with the Haldex unit in the back.... I've seen issues with the electronics and that's costly to replace.

[@salvobrothers5928]

it took about 3-4 hours, haldex is not as common to go bad, wouldnt hurt checking the fluid though

[@volvoguyV70R]

I need to do the turbo drain gasket on my v70r. Might have to pull the angle gear to do it. Thoughts?

[@salvobrothers5928]

it definitely would make it easier not entirely sure about access otherwise, ill have to ask nate

[@stevemccooleq]

Some say you can reach from a small space to the L of the angle gear. I can't see how. Total PITA to remove that angle in order to replace $10 of gasket & seal. Not Volvo's finest engineering moment.

[@NegativeSpacesPositiveEntropy]

Do you have any videos on how to rebuild the angle gear itself? My angle gear is leaving like a sieve and there’s no way I can afford a shoppe to do the work for me.

[@salvobrothers5928]

unfortunately we don't have a video for that

[@fazfarren]

Thanks for the video - really good detail. Can you tell me why the right hand axle has to come out, is it just for access or does it actually drive off the transfer box you are removing?

[@salvobrothers5928]

you cant take the angle gear without removing the axle first it all bolts together

[@gerardjones7881]

thats quite a good video.

I have a question about the differential (Angle gear), do you have remove 100cc of fluid(Front) and 50cc (Rear) when you fill it to the top of the fill plug? I have a 2005 XC90 AWD, I just serviced both differentials and Haladex drive unit(I removed 40cc of AOC fluid after I filled it up) at 156000 miles. (Yes, they were all very dirty Lol)

[@salvobrothers5928]

no, the drain plug hole acts as a fill level. once the fluid is full enough to come out the plug hole its full

Does the bad sleeve cause it to virbate

[@18_rabbit]

wonder if everyone agrees that a weak CV axle is what puts pressure on the seal it faces on that set-up that is or touches the angle gear/shaft/whatnot: thus, early change-outs of CV axle is imperative to prevent both this Collar damage/and-or more damage

I was under the impression I had to replace my angle gear, not just the collar. Am I mistaken? How can I tell if it is just a stripped collar?

its way more common for the collar to strip, if you didn't hear an nasty gear whining before it stopped working then its the collar.
