Trans flush ... Where to connect the hose????? 850 1995

Larry,

You are correct about the extra effort to remove the battery for accessing the lower hose. I always use the lower hose method with the battery outside the car. I used a jumper cable to connect the battery outside the car and the battery connectors under the hood. All you need is the 22mm crowfoot wrench with an extension and a 22mm open box wrench to unloose or tighten the lower hose union nuts. It is not that difficult. If people think this is too much work to do, then go with upper hose. I use this method because Volvo shop manual lists this way to flush the tranny. I don't mind doing this extra work. YMMV.
