Complete instructions are in the repairs section of www.volvospeed.com if you want to do it yourself.

Bargain on using upto 10 litres of ATF and this will thoroughly flush the system incl torque convertor.

or use the procedure in the haynes manual.
I found I didn't need to remove battery, as Haynes suggests, if you remove the splash shield from under the engine and remove the oil return hose from the gear box valve block.
