I've done the searches and found info on depressing the S40 rear caliper piston, but I have not seen any explanation of how to dismantle/remove the rear caliper so I can install the new pads. The Haynes manual is back-ordered from IPD at the moment.

I can see an emergency brake cable that looks like it needs to be disconnected (???)... but how? Also, what do I dismantle on the caliper... the bolts holding the sliders?

I have all the pics and plan on doing up a post for the rear brakes on the S40 this weekend, Sunday more than likely, it will be posted at Volvospeed.com/bay13.

I am having the same problem. Did you figure out how to get rear caliper off to replace brake pads?
