Round peg, Square hole....Volvo content.

I learned this weekend, I'm more of a Swedish meatball, than a Swedish elf.   Decided to do a PM on the Volvo S60.  Oil change, filters etc.  And to figure out why my AC was hot dog breath.  Well these cars are not built for old, round guys who want to venture under the dashboard.   Stepper motors are just barely within reach, and the cabin filter is worthy of Houdini in a straight jacket.   But, all is well.  AC performs well, and I'm in high cotton until the next PM.  Next on the list is new front suspension.  Just wish my wife was around to take pictures.   We all would have needed diapers.

Torx sockets and a 1/4 inch air ratchet are your friend there.

Had the torx bits, wish I had the air tool.   More reasons to buy tools.  And 25 pounds less of me!!!

I feel your pain.  In my youth, my girlfriend & I could do all sorts of naughty things in the Corvette.  Now I can hardly get into & out of one (Corvette that is).

In reply to M2Pilot :

Funny you mention a Corvette.  I sold my C4 to buy this Volvo.  Many moons ago it was my Vw bug, for back seat shenanagins.
