Nelpd96 Oh wise ones, I have just about exhausted my Google ninja skills. I need to replace the rear rotors and pads on the S40 T5. It is just a run around so not looking for top shelf stuff. It would appear that the XR5 280mm rear rotor is the same but what about the brake pads? Bendix list the DB1665 for the S40 T5 but the XR5 runs a DB1763. It looks like the only difference is that the XR5 runs a spring thing on the top which I should be able to take off. The reason I ask is that I am tight arse and I can get the stuff cheaper as a "package" Cheers Paul
Philia_Bear Cheap and good braking Dba t2 rotors with Euro plus pads I sourced locally for cheaper than anything I could find online
Nelpd96 So parts fitted, the euro+ pads look different to what came out I ordered db1665 as the catalogue states but they are squealing like a bugger. One click of the hand brake and it goes away. Thoughts or advice before I pull it all apart again?
Ex850R Now. I had a weird, metal scraping noise from rear of my e-brake v60, it happened after rear disks were changed seems only if I've applied the e brake. I don't do it now as the screeching is embarrassing. Not had it looked at. Could be same thing?
Ex850R Is it internal drum brake on disk for handbrake? Like the p80? They were a dodgy thing when old, never worked...
timbo I think you have the wrong pads they don't suit any of the Australian delivered volvos that I have seen. Db1763 is more likely what you need
