Vibration in brakes only from high speeds solved! 900

On 960s and V90s make sure to replace the rear pads even if you have a little pad left (2-4mm).I put off changing these for a long time since the wear rate is low and kept getting an odd grumble (not a pulsation)in the brakes only when stopping from high speeds (above 45 mph).It always felt like it was the fronts,but returned shortly after installing new pads/rotors on front!Just recently,rear pads were down to the metal-replaced them and that grumble is gone!Something (glazing?) apparently happens to these.Im posting this separately for 960/V90 owners who have complained about just this symptom of late.

    On these cars, the brakes will 'gumble' as you say, front or rear, when they are getting ready to go metal on metal, but just haven't gotten there yet.
