Hi I'm looking to replace my front pads as I've just passed 23,000 miles and was wondering which would be the best to replace them with. I was thinking about Brembo but I'm u sure of the size.
Could anyone point me in the right direction please.
Many thanks in advance

That is low mileage for front pads to wear low it is usually the rear pads which wear first , but it depends on the type of journeys you do of course .. Anyway use volvo pads otherwise you are likely to get noise . Volvo put a lot of effort in developing these pads to give silent operation and they modified the discs in year 2 of production to cure a noise which developed on some cars .

+1 for using genuine pads. Many other makes will be adequate, but less chance of any noise, issues etc. with genuine Volvo.

There are a few dealers who sell parts on e-bay at trade prices, so they will be reasonable value : https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/202661127...oAAOSwXSRcwF22

Don't fall for it mate, I've used the ECP Eisher pads before and there was no difference to any other pad, as for noise if you clean the calipers and copper grease the right places it won't appear,

Out of all of them I normally choose Pagid ones as they are OEM anyway,

My car had new genuine Flintstone Soles prior to me picking it up, they still groan a bit and EV's are worse, two hard surfaces of different materials will always generate some sort of report anyway.
