I am so tired on this reoccuring issue. Took the front pads off, wire brushed everything, used syl-glide from IPD on the calipers, pads, you name it. (Tried the volvo pink grease b/4 and had the same issue, so trying comething different) Prior to all that used the compressor and blew out the dust from everywhere. Still had about 1/2 pad life left on the pads. Use OE Volvo pads. 2 days later, I'm squeaking again, not initially, but when almost stopped. Depress the pad harder and it goes away. Very annoying.

The only thing I can think of is I didn't remove the rears and do the same maintenance. Those pads are less that a year old. Maybe the fronts are ok and as I'm slowing to a stop, the rears kick in and they are causing the squeal?

Thoughts, comments, fixes are appreciated!!
