    The truck 2010 630 d13 10 speed 676k
    I hear a click/crunching noise from drivers side.and also the wheel moves in sync with noise. Only hear noise and vibration under 15mph. At speed no issues. I check oil and felt cover for extreme heat. Checked out fine.

    So could the wheel bearing be going bad?

    Are you running grease hubs? Or oil hubs. I would pull the cap and check bearings . If you have a jack handy. Jack up that Side feel for play. If you have any play get it fixed asap.
    Sometimes it seems it's coming from the left side. But can bee right side. Just my .02 cents.

    The newer Volvos have sealed bearings, have to replace entire unit.
    Cannot repack bearings like on my '01.

    Wheel bearimgs good on both sides but have movement from kingpinn on drivers side. I was told that a new Kingpin bushing kit could solve my issue.
