For those of you who helped me this past summer about a rounded off brass plug for the gearbox, you may wish to visit www.stepbystepvolvo.com and click on "The Brass Gearbox Plug from Hell Fiasco" under "New!"

It provides an update on what happened. A 40-minute job became a 23-day task!

It's instructive for those of you who wish to change the gear oil or ATF fluid in your manual transmission gearbox.
