rear brake pads 06 xc90

whaleplane · Post by **whaleplane** » 30 Jan 2011, 21:46

I changed my front pads a few weeks ago and I'm ready to tackle the rear ones this weekend. Is there anything different, other than location, in changing the rear's versus the front?

Thanks in advance.

It is a very similar task with minor differences the anti-rattle spring but other steps are the same.

You can check out the video I did when I changed my 04 XC90 rear brakes and rotors. It was the first time that I have ever made a video for youtube. It may be a little long winded, but you can at least get an idea of what is involved before you have to take your tires off. It's not a difficult job, it should not take more than 30 minutes per wheel. YouTube Link:

Thanks for the link. It was going great then all of a sudden the video sped up like it was on fast forward. It slowed down after a while but did it once more. It blew through the best parts. Can you reload?

YouTube only gives me 15 minutes. With me loosening bolts, I had to speed that part up, to get the video size/length down.

whaleplane: I am working on uploading the full video to my website so that you can download it. I may break it out into three videos, since the full 1 hour length is 2.3 gigs. I will post the URL when I get the video to a smaller size

Here is the link to the actual WMV (Windows Media Video) file that I uploaded to my website:

It's pretty big, about 4.33Gb, but at least this will give you the full hour of me taking each step, and talking through it. Bear with me, I am just starting to get into this video editing stuff, and I hope to make more videos about the volvo. I hope this helps!
