- Time to replace my XC90 II D5 Brake Rotors and Pads. Decided to upgrade to T8 size rotors at the same time, so front was upgraded from 345mm to 366mm, while the rear was upgraded from 320mm to 340mm.
Here are the parts I used (This is not a sponsored video, I paid for everything):
FCP Euro KIT-31400569CKT5 kit which includes Rotors, Pads and Clips
Volvo 36012672, left front caliper bracket for 366mm rotor
Volvo 36012673, right front caliper bracket for 366mm rotor
Volvo 36010239, rear front caliper bracket for 340mm rotor, 2 required

In the rain even. Good man.
@@vica153 Yeah, just winter weather. I was very careful to cover up everthing to ensure no water get into the system.
Bleeding brakes solo, I hook the vacuum up to the bleeder on the caliper and pull the old fluid that direction. Still in short bursts and checking to keep the reservoir topped up. Start the whole process by vacuuming all the old dirty brake fluid out of the reservoir and filling with fresh.
Vacuum at the reservoir is probably ideal for pulling out any possible air in the system, but it also can introduce air at the caliper if you have any leaks in the attached hoses.
@@vica153 I just use the old method. Seems to be ok. Have driven about a few hundred kms since the brake change. No issues so far.
Добрый день.
Очень хорошее и познавательное видео.
Спасибо большое за видео.👍👍👍
Looks great! Did you noticed braking difference between smaller rotors to larger rotors? I'm thinking of doing the same thing, beside FCP Euro is 30 drives for me...
It is not a lot of difference, but the bigger rotors give a big more progressive braking. Shipping from the States from us unfortunately is very expensive.
@@eyhpoon Thank you! I got 72Km on my vehicle and will need both rotors and pads soon, I'll probably stick to regular size.
@@rontan8954 Nothing wrong with the standard size rotors and pads for normal driving in my opinion. Just need regular replacements. I used to have Volvo dealer service my car and if I am not mistaken, the rotors would got replaced around 25000 to 40000kms. I will see how the Zimmermann goes this time.
@@eyhpoon I'm at 73,000 km and the rotors look fine. That's crazy that they would replace rotors 40,000kms! Volvo charges way too much to replace both rotors/pads.
Did you have to 'manually' fully retract the parking brake to fit thicker new pads?
@@vica153 Yes, for the rear calipers, first need to retract the parking brake by taking the motor off and use a socket to turn the shaft (clockwise) at the back of the caliper, then use a caliper tool to push the piston back all the way.
I have the same car as yours. I want to replace the rocker cover gasket. Would you please show me some tips, where did you order the genuine Volvo parts in Down Under?
I have never tried replacing the valve cover myself. I remember around 50000km, the dealer replaced the entire cover. It depends on what I need, I do quite a bit of research around for what I need and pricing. For example, I bought the oil kit/fluid kit/Brake kit from FCP in USA (although not genuine), shipping is very expensive but I think its important to get the right spec of products in these cases. The genuine Volvo tie rods however (plus a set of genuine rim, used but very new), genuine cabin filters and wiper blades, I bought them from auto supplies in China because that gives me a best price including shipping cost (because there is sea freight available, but buying from Europe/USA I have to used expensive services like UPS/Fedex/DHL). You can also try local Volvo dealer to order parts, but normally not the cheapest option. Brake fluid and Coolant, I just use the local product which meet the specs.
I have my video posted have you watch it? And i brought it to dealer they said that normal and they not going to replace them even i have extended warranty on my car, that ridiculous with dealer.
@@thenguyen5659 Its definitely too loose.
@@eyhpoon yeah dealer said that normal and i dont want to spend money yet because i have extended warranty so i might use to it until it worn out more for them to replace. Anyway, how much you bought all the parts to replace?
@@thenguyen5659 If you watch my video, I hope you can see the difference between a worn and new tie rod ends.
@@eyhpoon how much all parts you bought in video?
@@thenguyen5659 Brakes or Tie rod ends?
Miałeś problem z odkręceniem śrub od jarzma na klucz 18? Jakiego klucza użyłes? Ja nie dałem rady kluczem płasko-oczkowym.
Are you referring the bolts to secure the caliper brackets to the hub? I cannot remember the size now, but I do use a socket with a long bar. I think to tighten it, the spec was 200Nm which requires quite a bit of force.
@@eyhpoon 200nm to tłumaczy dlaczego nie dałem rady zwykłym kluczem. Thx
Hello, what year is your car and what country you at? I asked because i see everytime you back up the car the 360 camera always on. I live in USA and it only show rear when i reversed if i need to use 360 i have to touch on screen
@@thenguyen5659 2017 (Manufactured late 2016), I am in New Zealand
@@eyhpoon mine is 2017 and live in USA so look like the volvo not want people in usa use 360 when reversing. Is there anyway to enable that feature like your?
@@thenguyen5659 I think mine remembered what I selected. If I select 360, it stays at 360.
@@eyhpoon mine is 2017 i tried save but still not work. But anyway, i have vibrating on high way too and brought to dealer they couldnt find it, ill try to check tire rod as your video, hopefully i can find something out.
@@thenguyen5659 I just uploaded a video and show you how my 360 behaves.
