Michael:

Yes, Volvo shims are the ones to go with. Some people claim they are not as hard as the BMW shims and will not hold the lash setting as well, but I have not empirical evidence of that. If you measure all your shims the chances are you will need 1-4 shims only so just get the ones you can find most easily.
