I’ve got a 2004 Volvo S60, one of the lower transmission clips along with a peace of piping is stuck in the radiator. How would I go about removing it from the radiator?

I had this problem once. The flare nut was too rounded to pull with a wrench and not enough space for a Vise Grip. What I ended up using was a small pipe wrench. Spray with WD 40 first and give it a few taps.
Good luck

SOURCE: 2004 Volvo S60 gets stuck

Must be the same as my 2005 V70. Do the brake lights function? If not it's probably a microswitch and /or solenoid needs changing somewhere gearshift mechanism. Mine let me downn yesterday but everything points to this.

SOURCE: volvo s60 abs systems

it is most likely that the abs module is faulty,, if the fault codes are read and it shows a fault with the right rear sensor then the module is faulty,,they usually go wrong at about 110//140k

SOURCE: my volvo s60 cuts off while driving

Actually cuts out while driving, or when at idle stopped at a light or something? If it is the latter, have your oxygen sensors checked and maybe your fuel pressure sensor or MAP sensor.

SOURCE: Volvo S60 sensor ?

Sounds like an oxygen sensor (there are two). I had a recent problem where I had a rough idle and my S60 continued to stall out. Turned out to be the rear oxygen sensor. After replacement, car idles nicely and car drives normally.

SOURCE: oil in radiator, car did not overheat

The oil cooler tank on the side of the radiator has cracked and allowed oil into the cooling system. Replace the radiator and you will need to flush the cooling system A LOT. and be careful driving it for a while, the mixture can take a long time to clear out of the head which can cause it to overheat.

How to remove transmission lines on a volvo 2.5t?

There are little clips that you squeeze in towards the line and that releases them. Squeeze the clips, then pull the line straight out of the radiator. Very simple. When you've done it, you'll go "aaahhh, that's neat!". :D

To reinsert the line, squeeze the little clips again and push the line back in and then gently give it a tug to ensure it latched properly.

2001 S60 AT, what;s the mileage/interval of replacing the AT transmission fluid?

According to Volvo the Transmission fluid change interval is every 52,500 for heavy use vehicles ie. towing.

In reality you should change it every 30,000 or so depending on your driving. By 30k it starts to varnish and discolor. There are several Volvo dedicated websites that give you the process if your mechanically inclined v70r.com is currently my favorite. Brickboard.com is also a good one.

http://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=8767

This site has a few write ups on various things and operations for flushing.

Just be aware that as in the beginning of the write up you have a P2 car and the fluid flow is reversed. This means you will need to take off the lower cooler hose on the radiator. Yours will be held on by a differant clip as well. You will need to press in on the two green tabs while rotating and pulling the hose out.

Hope this helps.
