OEM Volvo Brake pads

They let me use multiple coupons at once (all expired and all say that you can only do 1 discount).

For the account info:

The service tech checked my account and confirmed that only my contact information is on my account and printed it out for me. Then the other tech asked if he checked the scheduler? And they found the ex's contact information on the scheduler. He updated the information on the scheduler and then they both logged in on different computers to check, including scheduling an appointment for me to confirm that only my contact info is on there. Then the other tech checked again and confirmed that it was correct on his computer.

Pros: excellent service
Cons: multiple coupons issue
Vehicle: Volvo XC60

I don't like MBs organic brake pads, I went ceramic and have nearly eliminated all brake dust and good stopping power. I do, very much so, love my MB rotors.

Pros: good stopping power, eliminates brake dust
Cons: MB organic pads

Volvo uses a softer compound. I think they call them comfort brakes or something? I would always get about 40k miles out of my pads on my XC90. I switched to an Acura MDX and got 140k miles out of my pads. Volvo brakes work really well but I’ve never had a set last really long time.

Pros: work really well
Cons: don't last long

I took my XC40 to a local mechanic who only works on Volvo's and Saab vehicles and the cost for brakes, rotors, and oil change was $1200.

Cons: expensive
Vehicle: Volvo

Last time it went for a service I was advised rear brake pads are 90% worn and needed changing (they had fitted new rear brake pads 8 months previously).

Cons: pads worn quickly
