Default 2006 S40 upper radiator hose replacement

I am in the process of replacing the upper rad hose on a 2006 S40.


This is for a friend who lives 100 miles away. I buy the hose and toss a couple screwdrivers and pair of channel lock pliers into my car to go help her out. Well I get there and it looks like the whole damn engine needs to come out to get the upper hose off Thought it was going to be a 10 min job. I had to leave her stranded.


This is def not your standard rad hose replacement and I'm shocked I can not find any info on this? I was told take out battery, airbox, main brain, and the left clavicle......


Heading back down there Saturday, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Not sure where you were having to remove extra bits?
