WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Volvo C70, 2001 Volvo C70, 2000 Volvo C70, 1999 Volvo C70, and 1998 Volvo C70. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Apply the parking brake lightly (a few notches). Drive the car no more than 400 meters. This will clean rust and deposits off the brake shoes and brake drums, which are integrated in the rear brake discs
- Remove both the rear wheels.
