Hello dear motor-talker! With regard to the actual problem, please refer to this thread! KLICK ME When changing all brake pads and brake discs (after 153,000 km this is completely fine, before only changing over to the front) I could also take my pads of the foot-locking brake in view (I almost never use the foot-locking brake!): On the driver side both pads were replaced half, on the passenger side everything was fine……………….. I recommend to let all XC 90 drivers change the manual brake pads after running performances of more than 100,000km with a necessary change of brake pads and/or discs at the rear.
