The Volvo dealer is all the way across town...can a regular tranny shop...or Pep Boys flush my trans? Is there a filter to replace? When I review the Bay 13 instuctions I don't see mention of a filter.

Thanks...Bob

This is real easy. Take of the top hose, put a 4' section of 1/2" ID clear tubing on it and run till 2 qts are out. I took a clear 1 gal milk jug and marked the 2 qts. Turn off engine and put 2 qts back in. Repeat till the tranny fluid runs nice and clean red. About 12-14 qts. Might want to buy the clip that goes on the hose where it attached to cooler just in case it's worn or breaks during the procedure. I did just for safety but didn't need it in end. There is no filter to change. Helps to have a helper. My 6 yr olds job was to tell me when it got to 2 qts. on the milk jug. Good luck.

New clips aren't a bad idea. I'll probablyl replace them next time but what I did was put a small hose clamp around each one just to keep it in place. I did the same on the oil lines (turbo's have the oil cooler in the radiator) on the other side. Added peace of mind.

No filter and don't flush. If you're inclined to DIY, follow the Bay 13 instructions to just change the fluid. Takes 30 mins, 45 if you're being carefull or if it's the first time.

You'll need a section of clear tubing that can be bought at a hardware store and I ended up using about 14 quarts of ATF.
