    I tried to use the Volvo jack to remove a wheel from my 2008 S60 today. The
    jack doesn't seem to fit the rod in the jacking point on the car. Does
    anyone know of a good website with illustrations on how to use that jack? It
    seems simple but doesn't fit right.

    My s80 was the same. And it took a couple of try's. The jack u shape piece
    is smaller on purpose. The weight of the car pushes the rod into that u
    shape to be secure so it does not sit loose and susceptible to falling off
    the jack.

    Thanks, now I understand what's going on. I'll try again today. Good thing I
    tried it at home, in the driveway, instead of trying to figure it out in the
    rain some night on the side of the highway.
