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 paid $750 for it in 2007. It had a lunar odometer (north of 400,000) and the gas gauge stopped working so you had to write the mileage on a sticky note and slap it on the dash. The seat belts were *sawed off* and all the safety features deactivated. The brakes were high-dollar Brembos and I owned it for three years as a scrap hauler and fishing access get-to-er. I sold it for... $750. To a teenager. He probably still has it. 91-95 F-150 for life. Those things were TANKS and will survive the apocalypse, same with the Chevy 1500s of the day, especially the Silverados.
Malalim lang ang break.
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?
2021 Volvo xc40, $900 for front brake pads, rotors, cleaning and labor.
Yung experience ko, kahit hindi madiin ang tapak sa brake, napapa move forward yung mga pasahero.
Ford Territory! The brakes felt spongey
Brakes are too touchy, more than any other vehicle I've driven.
