I didn't find th Mobil 3309, so i think i'll go with Royal Purple Max ATF, it's the cheapest, but good quality and meets the requirement JWS 3309

Finally i found the Toyota T-IV ATF for cheap, my old ATF was so DARK and smelly.

i have replaced also the B4 servo cover with the updated one, easy job!

did the Neutral Control update S/W, if anyone need, the software P/N is: 30646691-3
it's not the same as TCM update S/W, according to the dealer.

after the B4 servo cover replace the shift felt strange, but know it seems ok, don't know if better than before, maybe i'll give it more time.

the Neutral Control remove is really a MUST, no more bumps when take off/on the brake

it's a shame we need to pay for the software(cost me $33.89 + $70.88 labor), Volvo should gives it for free, we should only pay the dealer for labor

Anyway, thanks everyone for the help

They do if you go for a full (small) service
Software for life, you should have asked them about it
