AW4 or AW5 Transmission? How to tell? V70-XC70 2000

My mother has a 2000 XC wagon and having the transmission clunk issue commonly discussed on this board. I want to do a tranny flush but when reading the owners manual it says the AW5 takes special "gear oil" and not ATF. I know this may be a dumb question but what is the best way for me to determine which auto transmission she has? The shifter has 1-2-3-D-N-R-P so I assume it is the 4 speed automatic (AW4?) Is there a plate that lists the trans type on the car? I don't have the original paperwork that came with the car.


Thanks for the help.

Angus
