Black stuff on front wheels S60 2001

Brake dust! This ain't Uncle Olaf's Volvo anymore!

But if you're in the rustbelt (like me) and the rusty calipers are starting to seize, you go from lots of brake dust to even more brake dust!

(Also the automagics seem to go through brake pads at an amazing rate! With a manual, I once claimed the world record for miles on a set of turbo pads at about 70K.)

"The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair." -- Douglas Noel Adams (1952-2001)
