Hmmm, i've just bought a 54 plate S60 D5 with 96k on the clock and apart from a handbrake that seems high i've got no problems. However this is a scary thread!

Did Volvo ever recognise this as a potential case for recall??

I'm super paranoid now as the weekend is gone and i've got a full week of driving to and from work ahead.

Think my next visit is to euro car parts and start thinking about setting some time ahead to do this. I'm reasonably handy with mechanics but for some reason handbrakes and the shoe replacement has daunted me.

I've saved a previous write up but was wondering since the thread has evolved if there are any further pitfalls to be aware of?
