Thanks, this was helpful. Just did mine. Volvo has a ton of variations on parts so mine didn’t have those top clips and also adhesive on all the pads. As far as brake jobs are concerned it’s really simple and probably only took me about 1.25 hours. The only problem I encountered was the adhesive on the old outer pad was extremely strong. It wouldn’t just come off the caliper. I had to put a flat head screwdriver in between the pad and caliper and bang on it with a hammer until I was able to get pad to separate. Brake parts cleaner is a pretty heavy duty solvent so once I made headway I kept spraying it in there to help loosen it up even more.
Yes I don't put copper slip on that style either. I have in the past dipped the ears in an old tin of hard car wax. Don't know if it helps with movement or corrosion, but not had any issues either. @17:05 OMG that seat base! 😮
Why did you change your brake pads? I use to own a xc40 (2019), bought it brand new and had to change all 4 disk and pads twice because the disk warped. Hence it warble when braking. Service centre said it was due to wear and tear but I don’t except this reason. Still don’t know what’s the cause and sold it eventually though enjoyed the car. The car was less than 5 years and mileage was abt 50k kilometres. Appreciate if anybody had the same issue and manage to solve it would share how it was resolved.
I guess it's nice to know how it's done. I'm guessing it'll be pretty much the same procedure for my XC90. It has brake regeneration for the hybrid system. Not entirely sure if a computer is required to change the pads etc. Great tutorial btw. 😜
Thanks for the video. My brother managed to strip the break calliper screw by over tightening the screw as torque figure suggested online was wrong. Do you happen to know the calliper bolt's torque figure?

The pads were worn down, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠

Same process as this one for the fronts, the regeneration is all done at the engine/motor side Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Did mine before Christmas on my xc60, rears were done for free by Volvo
I am editing the video on the rears at the moment, Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠

Sorry I don't, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Found the figures from a friend’s garage. 40 Newton Meters for break calliper bolts and 140 Newton meters for the wheels.
What model ratchet are you using?
Milwaukee electric ratchet £115 amzn.to/3M2L7vH Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
That brake fluid looked like it could do with a change!
Doesn’t look too bad at all really
Maybe in another video, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thanks
