Like the older style the really long ones with the screwdriver looking end on it. Stick it between the pipe and cover and pry.

Ok, so i tried to do it, this time with a screwdiver and a hammer, i sticked the screwdriver in between the shield(where they are "welded" together) and started doing it, and i could do it, but i wasnt sure if i continued doing that the pipe would break or something, so what do you recommend tech? should i continue doing this? or just get a lugwrench and do what you said?

Hhaahaa welllll arent you all special! Im taking the car tomorrow to have it removed hehe =] and also, my belts are a bit noisy, is there some kind of lube i can use so they stop whining?

I know there are several products out there, like belt dressings and stuff, but something from home? like WD40?

Well, I took the car amd they welded both pieces off, but the SOUND is still there, the guy from the muffler shop says its a tube that's got a hole and thats why. Also im taking the car to the Volvo to have the transmission fixed(oil filter, gasket and oil....Because according to the volvo that's whats making the clunking sound i posted a while ago.

Also, i need to re-fill my coolant every 2 weeks, i think the container might have a hole, what do you think it is? should i just tell the volvo guys to fix it? along with the perforated tube?

Should i buy these springs? http://www2.swedishpartswholesale.co...=null&dp=false

Or the lowering ones from IPD? i mean i like the height of my car but what do you recommend?

Also i found a power antenna for $15 here in Panama, would it fit my car?

Lol check out my VIN info in carfax Y V 1 J S 8 3 1 5 S 1 1 9 0 8 2 4

lmao....looks like you have a lot of things you want to do to your car! So many choices so little time eh?

I've been told that to get a belt to stop making noise you should check the pulies it's connected to. Don't spray WD-40 into anything...it's not a lubricant.
