Ozark Lee, when you do this, please post to the board what the fluid you buy from Volvo actually is. It should say all the specs on the bottle and it is good information to have for the rest of us. Esp those of us who live a good distance from a dealer and like to get fluids from local parts suppliers, who often sell the correct grades/specs of fluids - we just need to know what we're looking for.

I recently paid ~$40 CAN for a jug of fluid for the bevel gear in my '98 AWD, and the bottle had printed exactly what it was on the side - I can buy it at the local NAPA or Canadian Tire for less than half the dealer's price.
