Anyone have any advice - it is avery long hose and loops about much of the underhood real estate. Does it need to be done from below? Does the 850 have to be up on ramps? I have seen the volvospeed bay13 on radiator replacement - but that's not related to this. Bay13 did talk about a block drain plug - now that seems to need ramps just to be able to view.
SO the car is almost 11years old. I'm the original owner (65K miles) and if it's a tough job to replace that lower hose maybe I'll just take it to the dealer. I just did my rear brake pads - that seemed easy enought. Oh yea - the car is off the road while I drive my other toys - so I can put up with some delays - although I can't leave it up on ramps for more than a day.
