I just finished repairing the REPL yesterday and it works! Thanks Vitor for the illustrations. I did take a picture of the shaved pin for your use should you need to update the procedure since you did not have a picture.

I had to use a blow torch to get the "L" shape lever hot enough so to embed it to the REPL. I'm amazed that the plastic, once cooled, adhears well to the added metal lever. I had to redo the procedure twice because I made the lever to long. Nevertheless, I feel the modified piece is better than the original due to the lever being metal oppose to a skimpy plastic. I wonder if you are to buy a new one if Volvo has updated the REPL or they are using the same one. If not, it will be just be a matter of time before it breaks again.
