Volvo changed the tranny cooler routing in 02-03 time frame, but it is different depending on model. Older cars were at the top, newer ones on the bottom.
Calling the dealer may or may not help, some dealer service reps are not helpful but their parts dept guys usually are.

If it is an 01 or older, I would try the top hose with a catch pan under the radiator. Turn on the warm engine for 10 seconds and check.

Don't let your buddy have a machine flush the fluid, the franchises are usually in too much of a hurry and use too much pressure. The additional pressure can blow internal lines.
