DIY Tranny Flush - Hose Clamp S70 1999

posted by  someone claiming to be Andrew on  Thu Jul 25 10:11 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Have scoured the archives and Bay 13 / Ozbrick and am ready to do my own tranny flush. Ran into a problem the second I opened the hood---the clamp at the top of the radiator (the one you remove so you can connect the clear hose)on my '99 S70 doesn't look anything like the photo on Bay 13.

Mine is a plastic-looking apparatus, cylindrical in shape, with a couple of green tabs. I tried squeezing the tabs but had no luck. Any ideas? I'm thinking I should go to the dealer and buy a new clamp and then I might get an indication of how the silly thing works.

My '98 V70 matches the photo, so hopefully I can make that work!!

Thanks in advance.
