Default T5 2018: warning light when brake pads are worn??
Does the car indiacte when the brake pads are worn and have to be replaced?
Or is there no sensor for this?

Volvo does not install pad wear sensors and there are no "squealers" either. (small piece of metal that touches the rotor when the pads are worn)

Visual inspection is needed to determine replacement.

I measured appr. 4 mm left on the outer pads rear. When is replacement needed?
Can I assume that the inner break pad is also around 4 mm (like the outer pad)?
