Brake pads OEM Volvo or OEM BMW

I live in Socal and bought mine from a dealer out of state. Get on bimmerpost and search, there are a few like Jeff Steele from Passport BMW or a finance manager at Camarillo. If you are hard on the brakes like I am looking at Ultimate care+ is worth it. I’ve used its twice already to replace pads and rotors

Rotors and brake pads set you back about 3k every 3 years. Very easy to replace on your own as well.

Good brake pads 250 and 30 minutes of work.

For me, this car is all about the brakes in terms of gaining lap time. You need to really trail hard into and during the corner and of course it’s a rocket after that.

From brakes have been solid

Did brake rotors and pads myself parts about 400-500$. Brakes never wore out either they just warped.

OEM BMW Performance. Can’t recommend the brake pads though, dusty as hell. I had Hawk HPS5.0 pads before, those performed better than the OE pads with the added bonus of being very low dust.

2021 Volvo xc40, $900 for front brake pads, rotors, cleaning and labor.

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)

Volvos seem to eat brakes. My xc60 is horrible on brakes.
