I know how you feel.......now listen. Start with a new set of oem pads. If your rotors are new your okay but if you take them off and put a non-directional finish on them or at least hit them with some fine sandpaper like 600 grit.
Then, if you have new pads on rear(the oem from volvo with the soft backing, remove the shims, yes remove the shims, the ones with the arrow pointing up! Hit the rear rotors with sandpaper and you'll be cool! trust me. oh, most of all
grease the back of your pads nice and heavy.
