Ultimately I'll likely end up just paying someone to do it. My time is scarce these days and I'd rather not botch it. It sure sounds like a pretty common problem though and I feel like I should try to tackle it if for no other reason than to do a write up.
My understanding is that the column lock itself is the same or very similar. At least it looked just like the column lock on my 2004 XC90.
It definitely sounds like a common issue. In fact, in the thread below, they talk about a bulletin that's supposed to be out there for this issue. It might be worth checking with the dealer to see if your year/model apply. Mine didn't.

When I was at the dealer for this issue, there was another person there that was having the same problem with his 2008 XC90. :-)
2004 XC90 T5 ~130K miles, 2010 XC60 T6 ~28K miles
