Lubricating the constant velocity joint
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Volvo S40, 2003 Volvo S40, 2002 Volvo S40, 2001 Volvo S40, and 2000 Volvo S40. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Lubricate the constant velocity joint thoroughly. The outer constant velocity joint requires 80 g of grease. Also apply grease behind the joint via the shaft hole in the inner ring. Use half of the grease packet. The remainder will be used later in the boot.
