Mrsha - be prepared for cramps spaces, also make sure engine is cool. Job goes pretty easy - make sure the dealer sells you the green high temp o-ring. It is thicker and will probably never need changing again.

Hey what's Bay 13? I'm a new user on brickboard....

The job is 20-30 minutes and not too hard - just follow Bay13 instructions.

You will need to get the car up on ramps or jackstands to reach.

I did mine about 2 years ago- fairly easy job.

It's pretty easy. The hardest part is jamming the pipe between the other plumbing in the area.

My local Volvo dealer claims that using two gaskets improves reliability. And be careful not to pinch the o-ring as you reinstall.

It is a lot easier if you loosen one or both of the other two tubes at the turbo first. When I did it, it went quickly and they didn't leak later on.
