RE: steering wheel shudder query
Dr D,
No Mistake, That is the correct price for the Europarts discs.
I had the dreaded brake wobble when I got my 850 estate and was told about the wheel nuts not being torqued down properly will cause disc warp. So I looked around at changing them. I toyed with the idea of putting grooved +/or drilled discs on at about £ 180.00. In the end I got a set of the ATE dics and pads from Euro for about £ 80.00 all in. Apparently, ATE is the original spec fitted by Volvo. I couldn't justify to myself spending twice as much to fit discs that may look very nice, but do the same job as a cheaper set.
After fitting them, torquing the nuts down to 110nm and running in for 250 miles, no more brake wobble. ( Touch wood.)
Hope this helps.
Marcel
