Volvo antifreeze is expensive, but you only need 1 gallon. I would also replace the thermostat at 100K miles.

Yes, there is a radiator plug made out of plastic and an engine plug. But I cheat and just disconnect the bottom radiator hose at the engine. Then I pour 1 gallon of distilled water in the thermostat hole, reconnect the bottom hose and refill with distilled water and antifreeze.
