Any special tools for required S70 60K service? Everything straightforward? S70

I'm about to attempt (most of) the 60K service on my 1999 S70. Are any special tools required? Also, is everything pretty straightforward compared to other cars? Thanks.

Can't believe no one here knows this...

S70 V70 Service Light Reset
Press and hold odometer reset button. Then turn ignition switch to Run. When the service reset flashes, release the odometer reset button. Confirm by turning the ignition off, then on again

No, pretty straightforward. Torx drivers needed for the spark plug cover and the thermostat housing. I used Volvo coolant ($20 gal) just cause I wasn't sure of what other brands I could have safely used. Got most of the parts from FCP Groton except for the liquids.

If not already done...at 60K, I would recommend a Tranny fluid drain and re-fill. Volvo doesn't recommend it but it will save your tranny when you get into the 100K's.
