Same here, sold my 04 S40 for 880,000. Mileage was only 6t. Why, maintenance cost will kill me in the future. Yes, I chickened out

Hi fireblade, was it the new S40 or yung previous body?

Twas the last unit of the old body. Here it is, used only for six months. Purchased from me a a lawyer who belongs to a very reputable law firm. Also, he didn't ask for a single cent of discount.

Mahal talaga sa casa, kaya hanap kami parati ng 3rd party alternative. So far, so good pa naman sa 850. Odometer lang ang broken. Madali pala talaga masira yun sabi sa volvospeed.com . Might try out the DIY ways of fixing it.

As per www.ipdusa.com 's website (they ship international):
PBR Deluxe Front brake pads - $31.20 ~Php1,700.00/pr
PBR Deluxe Rear brake pads - $16.64 ~Php 900.00/pr
Front brake rotors - $64.00 ~Php 3,500.00/ea
***All for the Volvo 850 series.

Shipping won't double the prices of these items based on the quote I got for a set of tires. Parts should arrive within a week of ordering.

Btw, there are more affordable stores than IPD if you are just looking for OEM parts. They have the links at the Volvospeed.com 850 forums.

Isn't this self serving...since you work for bmw autozentrum. And IMO the remark is out of topic since it does not help Volvo owners who are looking for an alternative repair shop besides the "casa".
