General Rear Disc pads

[Gazmo]

Just a short one , I needed to replace the rear disc pads on my 1997 V70 TDI yesterday, I called my local parts supplier for a price and availability and couldnt beleive my luck, Mr parts man told me they are the same as a Vauxhall Senator and a Volvo 740 total cost £7.99. The product is made by QH so hopefully should be ok on quality the parts supplier is Wilco Carmaster so give them a call if you need anything

Well I'd always use OEM pads now. Cheap ones wear faster and can squeal - known Volvo issue. You know the saying : "Buy cheap, buy twice....." See thread in 850/70 section. Regards.

And genuine ones are not ridiculously priced in my opinion, where i can get these (genuine volvo rear pads for p1 V70 and 850 series) posted out for a total price of £24.43 inc vat and delivery, which to be fair is not a crazy price for a set of genuine pads, including postage.

that is a very good price for oe pads, not worth shopping around
