squealing brakes 850

Volvos are very sensitive to the brake pad type. Unless you use OEM pads, you run the risk of squeeling. Your generic semi-metallics will guarantee this. I have used Raybestos Quiet Stops (ceramic/copper compound) and found them not to squeel when using new rotors (BTW, never have volvo rotors resurfaced as they will warp for sure). OEM's work great, but they dust up a lot...the Raybestos' don't dust very much.
