mdlimy Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 i was refering to the point that the car is putting power to the front and rear when you need it (ie lack of traction) I assumed when you made that post you were implying the fact that the car isnt a full time awd system like some cars, of course its not 4wd, how many 4wd cars do you see?(please dont list them, i know there are some lol) WAR! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piston Slapper Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 For the AWD system itself? I've never heard of any. I'd try to replace the viscous coupling with the gripper center LSD from an old Audi Quattro, but aside from that, it's a good system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have handy a SC90 Quattro and I can take any part from the awd. I know for sure in Europe (Italy) the 2.5 lt Turbo Diesel V6 Audi 6 speed fwd/awd manual transmission fit perfect the 5 cyl volvo . But you need someone to send it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have to be custom fit into the driveshaft assembly, doubt there's any that would just drop in.I'm talking about the viscous that sits in front of the rear diff, not in the transmission.
