Now that the 50,000-mile free parts replacement warranty is up, I find myself needing to buy brakes and rotors. I'm not interested in spending 2-3 times more than I should by taking it to the dealership.

Where do you guys buy parts, specifically brakes and rotors? Do you expend the extra money for slotted rotors?

I have a 2012 S60 T5.

 

Rock Auto is always a great place to check.

 

In addition to Rock Auto, IPDUSA is also a great place, and unlike Rock Auto, which will sell you the cheapest option, IPD generally only sells products that are tried and true for Volvo's.

Just don't go with the cheapest ones.
