OEM pads and rotors for brakes
OEM gave me 140k miles with stock setup, but only about 60k with Titan swap, wider stance, more weight
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.
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.
I’ve got an 06 350z, driven it for a year put only 5k miles but, had no problems. I also own an 05 g35 with the same DE engine and it’s got 135k and never had any major problems, and I’ve put over 110k of those miles on that car. No major repairs..1 air bag recall, I redid the clutch at 125k, had to rewire the trunk to work, and I replaced a window motor. Nothing else but, oil changes, brake jobs and battery changes. Both cars are fun to drive, and being as old as they are they cost me very little to maintain, insure, and pay minimal amount for property tax. For some perspective. Next week i’m doing the front and rear brakes on the Z. It’s gonna cost about $65-70 for parts.
I had an 850R. It was great. However, two issues: the brakes were shit when they are hot (scarily so: I had a real squeaky bum moment when I tried to brake for a roundabout when I had be driving in an, er, *spirited* fashion*.* I mentioned this to a traffic cop and he said they always upgraded the brakes on 850s). However, unless you drive like a lunatic, I wouldn't have thought this was a major issue.
At the moment i drive a 2014 volvo v60 it brakes for me when going under 30 mph and something comes in front of me and I brake (too) late has lots of dings and dongs imho as I used to mainly drive pre 2006 and pre 2000 cars.
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 have a 2020 Rogue SV and it\u2019s pushing 98000. Great car in the Vermont winters , but I\u2019m on my 3rd set of breaks.
I have a Nissan Pathfinder 2022 and have had to replace brakes twice in 2 years.
I have a 2019 XC40 and kept having brake issues - they ended up replacing the pads and rotors… at less than 15k miles. I continue to have issues (now it’s nothing serious, just a very loud obnoxious squeal)
