My Volvo came with a large collection of service records and repair slips but in reviewing the large folder I cannot determine when the transmission was last serviced.Knowing this I think it prudent to drain the fluid and replace the filter. I do not have a green book for this information so naturally I do have a few questions:
- Is the filter similar in appearance to the one in this picture? http://www.google.com/imgres?client=...1&tx=134&ty=90
- When shopping for filters I've seem some come with and without a filling tube, can I re-use the old one on the new filter? If so, do I need a new o-ring or seal for the tube on the new filter?
- What fluid should I use?
- If I'm dropping the pan to replace the filter I plan to replace the same amount of fluid I removed. I reckon this is a decent method?
Thank you for the replies.
