Annoying squeaky clutch pedal and brake pedal 200

posted by  someone claiming to be cweed on  Sun Feb 8 05:28 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Hi...
I had the squeeky wheel on my old '82 Vo...I mean, you could hear my brakes 2 counties away...and with all the various things done, the only thing that stopped the noise was Italian break pads...sounds crazy, but any Italian brake pads worked regardless of brand...Italia is the name of one brand, I think.
If the greasing, and the teflon, and in my case a complete redo of the entire brake system back to genuine Volvo parts doesn't work (mine was even louder with the 'genuine Vo label' parts and I just hate brake noise even if they work fine), then simply try Italian brake pads...they don't cost so much as rotors, calipers, plus pads...and they really worked! I do believe they are not as long lived as some other brake pads...but who wants more squeeling miles?
Hey, the Italians make great shoes, why not brake "shoes"!!!
good luck
