The list is pretty accurate, other things to look at are the engine mounts especially the rear (gearbox) mount. You can also check for the gearlink bushes, if the gearstick feels sloppy in free and reverse is getting hard to get in the bushes are gone. Pretty easy and cheap to replace though.
Also check for oil leaks from the gearbox, check the CV boot on the left side. If that one leaks it's gearbox oil. The oilseal from the gearlinkage underneat the box are known to leak a bit. They all do, so be sure to keep the gearbox oil topped up. Best is to use Volvo gearbox oil, other brands can damage the bronze synchro's.

In the 440&460 only the turbo's are equipped with a board computer.
