Answer 4

better left to the dealer or volvo specialist. special gasket liquid is required cause it doesnt use an actual gasket---see volvo guru's answer for part #. the o-rings are kinda tough to keep in place and if they are pinched or not in right it'll leak. you should use the engine lift to raise the engine a little also. the gasket material is anabolic and is rolled on like paint with a roller.

good luck !!

Answer 5

They aren't hard to do as long as you get something to scrape off the gasket from the bottom of the engine block, and make sure you have a good clean surface to mate the new oil pan to.

Tighten the bolts in a criss-cross pattern. Loosely the first pass. Then do a second pass to tighten the bolts to torque specs.
