BUT THEY WERE FINE THREE YEARS AGO! YOU’RE JUST TRYING TO SELL ME NEW PARTS I DON’T NEED.

Also I didn’t know volvo used ATE pads as OE

Hmm. There must be a nice groove right in the middle of your rotor.

Been there with our old Laguna. Luckily the discs weren’t trashed too.

Getting your money’s worth out of those pads!

a little, but they are above specs (thickness) so the small wear line will eventually blend in lololol >:]

Volvo uses everything from everyone, click HERE

yeah but it’ll blend in after a while. Rotor is well above minimum thickness

I honestly couldn’t tell they were bad. Kudos to Volvo’s DSTC ABS :]

LOL I found some pads on the floor that had 3mm on them that fit. Seriously considering putting those on lol :]

Not a single clue they were worn dude. 100% honest

EL_ULY > coqui70
02/13/2016 at 12:50

Nah. They have a small groove but because they are within specs, they’ll blend in eventually

EL_ULY > Dr. Zoidberg - RIP Oppo
02/13/2016 at 12:51

Nah, they’ll eventually blend in the little score mark *thug life.gif*

Yup, all good. I was going to put some used ones I found on the shop floor with 3mm on them lol :] Save a little money for the moment :]

That’s commitment. PA inspection limits fail pads at -2/32" and I think my fronts were at 4/32 when I replaced them a few months ago. I could have gone with OEM Ford parts for my Ranger, being that I work at a Ford dealer.

I figured pfffft brakes are cheap so I went with aftermarket. Zero Fucks given.

Damn bro, careful! I feel your pain, because my Mazdaspeed 3 uses Volvo brakes. =/

your volvo rear brakes part number ends in 1331 lol. Also if Volvo version, the car needs to be plugged into the scanner to access the ABS module to be placed in Service Mode. If not, the caliper wont be able to be pushed in. MS3 used same motor mounts, control arms, axels and maaaany other things. FoMoCo Europe, yo!

Neta? Fuuuuuu.

Yeah, i heard I can use the electric Focus’s’s’s’s’s’ss’s’s’ss’s RMM. Good thing too, mine are made of gum and paper.

EL_ULY > RazoE
02/14/2016 at 22:55

Yup. Not sure if Mazda also. LR, Jag, and Aston uses CEMs (central eletronic module) the have Volvo stickers on the. It also controls that sort of stuff. I’ll ask Takuro next time. I’m curious.
