Hello,
This a message of appreciation and thanks to the author of this guide. I have just changed the front and rear bushes using the two guides posted.
The problem with my 2000 S40 1.6 was that I could not engage 5th first time and it generally felt lose in selection. Now it's perfect.
I bought the bits for around £10 from here

Job done!
Thanks!
