XC70 2008 Rear Rotor Issue XC 2008

Try searching for similar issues at href="http://www.v70xc.com/">http://www.v70xc.com/. I don't think we've come across this particular problem here. It sure sounds like either a software problem like what the BMW dealer you mentioned suggested. Otherwise it would be a manufacturing flaw in the caliper which I find unlikely since it's both sides of the car.

The dealer's postulation about a rock in the pad is pure BS. Maybe if that rock were a diamond...

Your car has a problem, replacing the rotors every 8K is only treating the symptom. Is there any way you could try a different dealer? Next time ask to see the old pads or at least find out their thicknesses. It would be helpful to know if they are worn unevenly, indicating a sticky piston or binding slider.
