Save money on widshield wipers

I have a 2004 S80 and I was shocked at the cost of new windshield wiper blades, so I found a way to use a $6.00 set of refills and install them into the old blades.

2004 S80 front brakes

I will be replacing the front brakes on my 2004 S80 2.9 non-turbo. What, if anything, do I put on the back of the pads. Anti-squeal goop, for example?

Also, do I need to worry about the ABS system when I bleed the brakes?

Thanks

Can I get the factory service manual for a 2004 S80?

I do not like hayne or chilton manuals. I have purchased factory manuals for other cars, but I cannot find a source for Volvo's.

Any idea where I can get one?

What kind of PS fluid for a 2004 S80?

Do I need to go to the dealer for the "official" Volvo power steering fluid or can I use a generic brand?

Thanks again Tsquared,

I've been working on my cars for 30 years.

I try to be extra careful and do my homework before working on anything. I will get a manual soon.
