Found infomation on AllDataDIY. Looks like I could easily spend about 1,000.00 in specialty tools and a whole bunch of time. Weighing saving the $$ and just letting my local Non-Dealer Volvo repair facility handle it or maybe trading in for another. Thanks for the replies. I also noticed when I typed in keywords that were Volvo Tool numbers that my search engine brought up several threads on related procedures with pictures.

A friend is replacing my head gasket on my 2000 S40. Looking for paper references on the procedure as back up so he doesn't screw anything up. Does any one know where I can find such information and can share any "what to look out for" information on this procedure? Thank you.
