Default Tranny fluid leak where hose connects into radiator?

I have a 02 C70 Turbo.I recently bought this car and I noticed I have a leak where the hose connects into the radiator at the top.It has been leaking for so long, the fluid doesn't even register! I was just wondering if there are some o rings that are between the connector? If so, can I buy the o rings separate or do they come with the hose? Another thing where can I get a repair guide for this model, will the older one for this model work (96-99) for this particular job? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

I have heard that some Volvos have a permanent transmission filter, does this model have one? Thanks

Well I guess I answered part of my own question. I found that the o rings and the clip are separate. Has anyone has this problem before? Do the o rings go out and need replace so often? I would like to know before I buy a $100 hose. Thanks

Signed,

Not my kinda car but I would just try the o ring first and see what happens, its cheap enuf

Take th o ring to a parts house, they should be able to size it up on a board chart.
