Just found this site. GREAT place. We purchased our Volvo about 2.5 years ago due to the safety reputation. As a 20+ yr firefighter, I have NEVER had to extricate ANYONE out of a Volvo. Last shift though we had to pop a door to a Geo Storm under the butt end of a bus, but that's another story altogether.
The wife drives an 850 and I replaced the brake pads for the 1st time since purchase. The rear ones now squeal. I searched the archives and found an older response to apply an "IPD backing material" to the back of the pads. Are there any other suggetions? Thanks in advance!
