alschnertz1568908576 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Trans. issues 2-3 months ago.Crappy ProParts fuel pump failure 2 weeks ago.Now today, one of the RR brake pads material delaminated from the metal part of the pad. Resulting in a horrible grinding sound and poor brake performance. Too irritated to even pull it apart right now.This '01 S40 is now known as my problem child. :angry:Still getting over 31 mpg though. And the transmission and "Volvo" fuel pump are working great!

theForgottenone Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 Funny you mention that since last time I replaced rear pads was like 8 years ago 😂. Still have some life leftI replace the engine mounts, found my hbrace broke. Removed it and one of the cracking noise went away. Now I have new noise when I turn low speed so I think I might not tighten the control arm bolt to the max. This car is killing me lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theForgottenone Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 Warren,I want first dibs on the 5zigens and Team Dynamics if you ever decide to part with them!!I still have the TD wheel but i gave away the 5 zigens to a close friend. One of the wheel (5zigen) did have a slight lip damage but it still in great conditions. I"m too lazy to change out the wheels these day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still have some life leftYea, check them soon.I did the rear pads today. They didn't de-laminate as I expected. They were worn completely down!I can't believe this car went through rear pads in only 5-1/2 years and 35,000 miles.I generally get close to 100,000 on rear brakes.It was a surprise. Especially considering the way my daughter drives (very conservatively). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
