Got to love Volvo. Once again in their infinite wisdom they have consolidated part numbers over the last few weeks so now the XC70's would appear to all use the minimum thickness 23mm rotors and no longer the 25mm as fitted to my car. What a gong show, but good news is I don't have to strip it all down again! However it means Volvo have not updated the Vida info for the front brake rotor minimum thickness yet for the change up, although it was relevant until I swapped the rotors for the newer ones.
