The best thing to get is the special tool. I tried the plier method and it is almost impossible to put enough pressure on the piston to get it to go bac. You can get the special tool from Volvo or the mechanics at the volvo dealership here say they don't use it. They use the one from snap-on. It fits more cars and it is a better tool. I suggest the snap-on one. Also, supposedly auto parts stores carry it but if you ask them for the one that fits Volvo they look at you weird.
