Rolling road (spin) test (models with AWD and viscous coupling)
When checking brakes using a rolling road (spin) test, or when balancing the wheels directly on the car,
the other wheels must be free to roll, see illustration. This ensures that the viscous coupling is not
damaged. The drive power is transferred automatically by the viscous coupling to the car's other drive
wheels. If you are unsure, consult your nearest Volvo retailer.
Hoisting the car
If a garage jack is used to lift the car, the two jack attachments points should be used. They are specially
reinforced to bear the weight of the car. A garage jack can also be placed under the front of the engine
support frame and under the reinforced plate in the spare wheel well. Take care not to damage the splash
guard under the engine. Ensure that the jack is positioned so that the car cannot slide off it. Always
use axle stands or similar structures.
