Installed a new radiator at 222,000. I used the old metal clips to reclip the 2 transmission lines. Went to Volvo dealer to get 2 new clips. They charged me $11.50 per clip. Parts mgr was apologetic on the cost. I am not sure I have attached the old metal clamps correctly!I would like to use the old clips and return the new ones. How do I know they are attached correctly. Thank you so much!

Highway robbery is what it used to be called.

If you put the clip on the line first and then slide the line onto the radiator fitting, it should 'click' and a firm tug should confirm. You could get a hose clamp at the hardware store and lightly secure it further - but caution as you do not want to over tighten.

I actually bought a clip from the dealer years ago after flushing the tranny fluid. The old one was very rusty and I just didn't trust it anymore.

BTW, there is little pressure on those lines.
