Removing gearbox
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Volvo S40, 2003 Volvo S40, 2002 Volvo S40, 2001 Volvo S40, and 2000 Volvo S40. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Ensure that the torque converter is removed with the gearbox and does not slide off the stator shaft. Use the hole in the torque converter cover to press the torque converter down.
NOTE:
Do not pry toward the flange rim for the flywheel sensor.
