Use a 1' socket, NOT 25 mm 900 1991

This i learnt from a mech, having the same problem as you. Use a T-bar, and hammer on it with a big wrench or similar item. Good metal-to-metal contact is essential. There is nothing spooky about this, except that Volvo chose to use an inch-sized plug in a car which otherwise uses mm-size. Maybe it has to do with the US market being so big they reasoned that the 1-inch size is more common in socket sets in the garages in the US?
