Volvo 940 Front Brake Replacement - Increase Stopping Power (740, 960) 

Please do more early 90's era videos! Water pump, timing belt, steering, shocks and coils etc! This video was very helpful. 1990 740 Turbo.

Best cars ever manufactured

Thanks so much! This answered a few questions about the rotor removal. Appreciate the effort it takes to post a quality video.

According to the haynes 1982/1991 Manual (No 1258) the torque wrench settings for the 740, 940 are: Front Caliper bracket Screws 100Nm 74 lbf ft.

You'll want to use synthetic brake grease for the sliding bolts.

Great video. Lets you see all the parts and where they go. Thanks.

Great video man thanks

FCP Euro Greate repair videos for my Volvo 940 2.3 turbo 1995 mod !! thanx

So satisfying

Great video. Thank you. I have a 1987 760 turbo.

wow those rotors you took off look way better then the ones on my 940

Thanks for this video guys. Have to do my wifes brakes so this helped a ton.

Volvo says you must replace those M10 bolts as they are torque-to-yield. Volvo front pads always come with new bolts.

Are you supposed to use a specific grease for the sliding bolts, or will caliper grease be fine?

thanx for the video lost they 10 hex caliper mounting bolt rather then buy a hole kit tracked down the bolt

Do the caliber retaing bolts get lube??

Im in Nova Scotia and I can also confirm that rust is a big ass problem

9:35 Grease between the pad and the shim will ensure no brake squealing. That's why others do it. Regards.

What about the brake fluid? If you remove the line from the caliper, doesn't the fluid leak out? Was the fluid removed first somehow?

How many parts cost?

Hi, I have a 1988 740 GLE. I'm not sure if I need the 10.25" or 11.25" front rotors. How can I tell?

I can't get the metal clip things on the pads to line up with the holes on the calipers, could you think of any reason why that would be?

Здравствуйте. Пишу с Кыргызстана. У меня вольво 960 1993 год автомат. Как могу заказать амортизаторы нивомат?

"Get the kid & DIY"....do I do it myself or will the kid do it? But nice informative video...thanks for that.

Nicely done- not to be a stickler but there is no way to inspect those rubber brake lines when they have stainless wire over them- the stainless just stops them from bulging too much when the rubber is bad. Technically, Federal law in the US says the rubber lines must have correct markings and NOT be covered or obscured so this style line is not legal to use on any US motor vehicle. Also, because the line can NOT be inspected- it would be prudent to replace it with a DOT approved (legal) style. I've had way to many stainless clad lines leak and blow... and in this application it can be a big problem-- worse, if you have an accident and the insurance company faults your illegal equipment for it- and they will try to do so.

All you had to do is clean the calipers ... the old ones were fine.

"The front breaks are most likely to fail first on any car" well... My front breaks are made by gods and my rear breakes fuck up all the time, although im now doing some front maintenance

Should have used a torque wrench.
