Hey all its me again. As of late my breaks have been squeeking more than normal and it is comming from the front becuase i just had the back breaks and rotors done in Dec. So before i went off to buy some new pads etc, i took off both front wheels and examined the pads first. I saw that the front pads on the outside looked like they have a lot more life left on them. I couldent see the back side pads really well due to the caliper. Now i was wondering if there are any cases of the inside pads wearing much more than the outside pads, and could that be my problem? When i start to apply the breaks on the park way or at a high speed i get this terrable jerking of the wheel, but if i push down all the way this jerking goes away and it is smooth stopping. Any help? Thanks again!

 

You might want to have you master cylinder checked.

 

The sliders on the caliper might not be sliding freely.

 

Ah ok Tech. What do the sliders look like so i can take a look. I forgot to mention that the squeeking is intermedit. I suspect myself warped roters, but i dont want to fix things that are not broken.

 

The sliders are Where the bolt goes through the caliper. Also the top might just have a pin on the Bracket side and a hole on the caliper.

Are they Volvo pads?

 

Tech i am not sure as i havent removed the calipers since i bought the car in August. I have read that non-volvo pads tend to squeek more so that orginal volvo pads. Thanks for all the help.

 

Let me know how it goes after you check it.

Yes aftermarket Squeel ALOT more than Volvo pads.
