Very interesting to read this as i intend on replacing the dmf/and slave cylinder in the next few months,i bought the core plug from volvo but got the rear crank seal a quality german-Elring make from my local engine recon place,i cant remember whether the seal is a new type or not,but if it's the old style with a spring and 2 lips would the special tool still be required,or could it be drifted in carefully.I did the front seal last year and remember it was an absolute pig to do with the spring flipping back on itself a few times,before i concocted a thin plastic sleeve to help it in
