Volvo brake pads do not have squeaking tabs on them except for the 2000-2004 S40. Regular inspection intervals are required to visually determine brake pads remaining thickness. Volvo recommends replacing the pads when there are only 2mm remaining. Once the pads wear completely away and start rubbing metal to metal the rotors must be replaced. Rotors have two minimum thicknesses also. One minimum is Pad Change Min which is the thickness usually about 0.8mm above absolute Min Thickness where the rotors will probably not be below the absolute minimum by the time the pads wear out. The absolute minimum thickness is usually stamped on the hub of the rotor and varies with the diameter of the rotors. Your local dealer can tell you what the thickness specifications are for your particular vehicle.
