I just did mine at 60k I bought Bosch and they’ve been great.
Mymotorworld has Bosch front and backs at around £45 for pads they also have textar a good brand for a little more. I wouldn’t bother with the other cheap pads given the acceleration you can get with the car.
I installed the Bosch ceramic pads on a Hyundai Sonata, no issues with it
I used the Bosch Quietcast from Rock Auto. Works great for me as a daily and there is minimal brake dust.
After replacing the brakes with Bosch and tires with Michelin CrossClimate, over 30k miles later and brakes have at least another 50-60k life left, and tires too, since they have 80k miles warranty.
XC90 T8, total 135k km on the clock and have done 85k km ourselves:
- previous owner did the brake pads at about 40k km
- we have now done front and rear brake pads recently (so after about 90k km use), both front and rear still had about 3mm to go.
You’ll be good either way. Bosch is great
Since we know Volvo has undersized the brake pistons for their SPA vehicles, leading to issues with pulsation. Instead of upsizing the brakes, they have released several pad revisions, have the latest pads slowed the occurance of brake pulsations?
I get this too since I replaced pads and rotors (Bosch Quietcast pads/Zimmermann rotors). To me, it's more of a click than a clunk.
Every time I get Bosch brake pads I\u2019m disappointed.
