Brakes AGAIN 850 1996

posted by  someone claiming to be kenk on  Wed Nov 6 18:31 CST 2002 [RELATED]

ok i will swear by this, when i bought my car it had midas pads volvo rotors, (i have service records). midas pads were supermetallic, they were quiet, and stopped incredible, volvo pads that are on there now feel mushy and dont stop as well at all, feels like my dads v70(sorry dad). I wish i hadnt had the volvo pads put on. Next time im going to get supermetallic pads and be done with it. No brake dust either, oh yea and rotors were in great shape.

however i should temper all this with the fact that im quite displeased with the work this dealer has done, so im not sure the volvo pads are done right, but my car does stop EXACTLY the same as my dad's now so its probably allright. i miss my good breaking, granted it still stops incredible, however with the midas pads i had a obscene amount of stopping power, rock solid pedal as well.
