Volvo XC90 Rear Shock Replacement DIY (2003-2014 Volvo P2 XC90 T5, 4.4L V8, 3.2 SI6)

►Replacing your Volvo XC90's rear shocks is a DIY job. The rear shocks are put under stress every time you drive as they work with the springs to help absorb harsh bumps and deliver a smooth and composed suspension feel. However, they'll wear out with regular use and age, leading to a sloppy, clunky, and bouncy ride. While annoying, the lack of damping is also a safety hazard, so ensure you replace them as soon as possible.
A rear shock replacement is a very straightforward job. It requires only a few tools and a couple of new parts. Replacing them yourself will also save you money, as dealerships and independents will charge for the labor and more for the parts.
In this video, Mike Hidalgo, FCP Euro's Professional DIY'er, replaces the rear shocks on a P2 Volvo XC90.
