Brake pads Brembo or OEM Volvo
I’ve got a ‘21 XC60 T5 Inscription now with about 33k miles and absolutely love it. I’ve had a couple problems with the front, passenger side interior handle but they’ve been covered under the CPO ten year warranty. Wish it had full screen and wireless CarPlay but there are ways around it and replace the OEM brakes with better ones when it’s time as the Volvo ones suck as they wear quickly and unevenly. VERY happy with it.
Brembo off Ebay. Their brakes last 75k and they're so popular they are scalped from the manufacturers website in minutes lol!
I ended up buying the brembo pads after getting power stop. These brakes can squeak so go for the gold.
I did this with mine and they have been great so far, while saving some money.
The brembos make a big difference.
Brembo SA/SP material for good performance price ratio.
Brembo LA material for longevity vs performance ratio.
I use brembro all the time, and they honestly last longer I think. I use them on my 9-3 2.8V6 convertible
Edit: I used the M-tec rotates drilled and grooved with the brembro brakes, front and rear
My braking is much better especially on a long drive with hot days, no brake fade at all
I put some Brembo prime pads on my S80 I had them on before and were pretty solid, until they were about 80% worn and braking performance fell off a cliff Put new prime pads all round and for the first 2k miles they were amazing, very sharp brake feel but again performance started to degraded noticeably From cold they're crap, after about 5 minutes of driving when they warm up they bite as they should, also dust like mad, I left a 3 star review on AutoDoc and they gave me a full refund citing this could be a potential warranty issue, although I reckon that's them not wanting bad reviews on their site I'm probably going to go for Bosch next as that's the OEM Volvo use
2021 Volvo xc40, $900 for front brake pads, rotors, cleaning and labor.
Ein Problem bei den Brembo Belägen die ich hatte war aber immer dass die nach ein paar tausend km quietschen wie Sau. Ließ sich auch nicht nachhaltig beheben.
