Just saying..

Yeh I know what you mean. I can pick these up from Volvo tomorrow as I work next door to the dealership. I'm not going to change the O ring and washer until I've flushed the oil 4 times.

Then I'll leave that oil in the box for 1000 miles then a few more flushes and I'll replace the washer and O ring again then.

Sound a plan?

I've done a crash course in automatic transmission boxes ha :-)

Only started with a general question about the shifting between 1st-2nd gear and now I'm £100 worst off and planning the first oil change ha

Walk to the breakers (we call these scrapyard or junkyard in NA) did a few videos while there

And finally two words on purchasing the quality brands for the spring seat mount (the rubber part on the strut assembly)
