if you've had the rotors turned, the shop should have been compitent enought to know if they were warped. my bet is that they aren't. i was too hard-headed to believe this but MAKE SURE you have torques each wheel nut correctly. i think it should be 60 ft.lbs. i didn't want to believe it but as soon as i bought myself a 1/2" drive torque wrench from sears, i cleared up my problems. the rotors on a volvo prefer o warp if the nuts aren't done correctly. do yourself and pocket a favor and try this first.
