Trans Fluid Service 850

think the $80 is pure BS...my volvo dealer quoted me £170 for the fluid (thats about $250-300 without doing the job...and its wasnt even sythetic..i laughed (politely) and went down to my local shop and bought the fluid for £60 (circa $100) and away i went...unfortunately i had to buy the hose clip & o-ring from the dealer and that alone was £10 ($15-20)!

but as others have said DIY it...after all im goign to be going mine once a year or every 30k whichever occurs sooner so its worth havign the kit and the skill and sving yourself a shedload every year (or a potentially expensive trans failure) while your at it replace the top suspension bush - agian an easy job and cheap part and they fail frequently and this leads to a 'hard' shift...
