By the way, don't you have VADIS? It is very very helpful.

hi gatos,i downloaded vadis from (pb) but cannot get it to do anything so i gave up....i knew you had something, from a problem i had weeks ago....i have never attempted a gearbox,so if it comes to it i am hoping my brother who is coming tomorrow will help..but if its going to take a day,plus cash,it could be a few days before we can attempt it....there is one thing,will there be enough room in the engine bay to get the gearbox out once i remove the battery etc etc

You will have to raise the car, remove the wheel, remove the support member, remove the driveshaft...... See attached vadis info
Check out this guide for VADIS istallation too. It might help http://www.2shared.com/document/gunk...ion_guide.html Also check this thread: http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showth...=vadis+windows Quote:

Anyway, you don't have to remove the gearbox to change the plastic part I have mentioned above. You can change it with the gearbox still on. You will only have to remove the whole gearbox if the problem is not that small plastic bit

i have read all this thread with interest and although i am too late to help but just had a thought looking on
that plastic piece removed by taking out the securing clip one has to hope that the "O" ring might have failed which is inside where it goes onto the slave cylinder it would be a dream come true if it has and perhaps try a new one or even the whole plastic piece you removed from your own box gatos before neanderthal ripping out his gearbox!!

That is why I am a Neanderthal too.....lol. I called that o-ring a seal. Thanks for pointing that out 960kg. The o-ring is very small and is where the yellow arrow points. I wish too that it either the o-ring or the black plastic joint. Gearbox removal should only be required if there is no fault there
