The far best video on old volvo rear brake replacement. Perfect camera position, everything is clearly to see. I'm going to replace my brake pads on my 1996 volvo 940, now I feel ready, hope everything is going to be fine. Thank you!
Have not installed rear pads on any of our Volvo's yet, glad I watched this or I would have been trying to remove the caliper like on the front axle. This video makes it look even easier to do.Thanks Robert!
Hi Robert just wanted to say thanks for your videos. 5 years ago I bought one of my boys a 98 S70 and with your help he’s still driving the car today. I’ve never had to take the car to the shop. Been able to trouble shoot and replace parts and what not myself. Sometimes I even try to talk and sound like you when my kid is watching me fix something. Ima pick up some pads this week for the back breaks and I’ll just get him to pass me whatever tool that might work instead of the right tool as long as it gets the job done it don’t really matter right.
Thanks for the vid as always. Just got done replacing the rear pads on my '96 wagon. The pads and calipers were so rusted, I ended up having to take the caliper bolts out and swing it slightly out in order to get the pads out. Easy after that. Just have to be careful not to bend the steel brake line too much.
Make sure to check the hardware before ordering pads. My pins were barely salvageable and one spring clip was missing. Ordered a hardware kit from ATE, stainless shims, and ended up having to get new rotors (excessive runout).
Thanks for the good instruction! Just to be shure that I understood the process: for only replacing the sensor it is NOT absolutely cecessary to remove the brake caliper and the brake disk, is it?
@@RobertDIY Just realized that I picked the wrong video for my question. Nevertheless, you understood what I meant and answered - thanks a lot! Best greetings from Munich, Germany
@@RobertDIY no because i managed to push it back i did everything right . but for some reason it makes a horrible noise for some reason . do i need to wear them down to stop the noise? im really confused for the other side its fine
I'm having the same exact issue when I replaced mine. I noticed it only starts to grind when I add the anti-rattle spring but, I'm thinking it might just be the brake pads since they're brand new. Did you ever figure it out?
Hi Robert, I got a question. I hope you can understand it cause I'm from the Netherlands. I got a Volvo V70 classic from 1997 and it has a big problem. I was driving for a while and suddenly the car stopped and it was dead. The engine was off, and the power was gone. Even my hazerd lights didn't work. So I'd started the car with another battery from a running car and now my car is working fine, but I don't trust the car anymore. Do you have a idea what this could be?....

Correct. You can also pass the tools to him since he drives the car. 😉
Thanks, Robert. I always enjoy your videos
Glad you like them!

cool
You the man Robert, once again delivering great content and helpful information about what I need to fix
Glad to help
Compressed air is also your friend in this job. The dust buildup is always un believable.
This one was bad.
Good video Robert, the Right-hand side pads seem to wear down more than the left-hand side on my C70 coupe here in England.
Hmmm, piston may be getting stuck.
Make sure to check the hardware before ordering pads. My pins were barely salvageable and one spring clip was missing. Ordered a hardware kit from ATE, stainless shims, and ended up having to get new rotors (excessive runout).
Ouch
@@RobertDIY so much for an easy brake job
ottimo lavoro, è sempre istruttivo vedere i suoi video. grazie!
Prego.

That is correct

I need to replace rear brake shoes and will be installing new rotors. I have a 99 s70 t5. What brand is recommended? I was looking at Bosch.
I don't do Bosch. I usually do Volvo, Zimmerman, or Bilstein rotors and akebono pads.
@@RobertDIY ok. I think the back passenger side caliper is sticking so I will probably replace the back 2.
In a pinch, I had to use a 16 penny, hardened nail, to drive out those pins
I've used everything except the proper tool. 😜 Just kidding, I probably used the proper tool twice.
Hi Mr Robert my I've installed my new pads but they are grinding when im not even braking .not sure what the issue is
is the caliper seized?
@@RobertDIY no because i managed to push it back i did everything right . but for some reason it makes a horrible noise for some reason . do i need to wear them down to stop the noise? im really confused for the other side its fine

@@ernestorosas1552 could just back the brake pads bracket maybe it's installed the wrong
@@noteconmicallysensible thank you, I will take a look at that
7:23 everything can be a hammer right? :D
LOLOLOL
hey Robert if my pistons don’t press in that easily what should I do? Does that mean they dont work?
That would be my guess.
It might help to open the bleeding valve that brake caliper
Use a proper size drift. Works better and easier.
😆 Exactly. I probably should get a set. Where to put all the tools.
Hey Robert,
Perhaps a newbie question, but is this procedure also the same for the front brakes?
Thanks so much for the video!

Likely the battery cable is going bad.
@@RobertDIY is it hard to replace it by myself?
Probably not
