On the bigger Volvo's - especially XC model - Volvo original disks and pads are the best quality part available by far and the only way to go if you don't want the risk of having to do it twice (as the OP is having to).

Yes they are more expensive (not so much from Volvopartstrade on e-bay) but perform better (substantially so in some cases) than pattern parts.

And i am talking from personal experience of my own cars (XC90, XC70, XC60 & V50).
