V70R AWD Phase 3 Rear Discs
Discussion
Hi all,
I recently purchased a stunning, relatively low mileage (80k) V70R AWD Phase 3 it needs little doing to it however the rear discs appear to be the originals coming to the end of there life, infact today a slight squeal started coming from the near side. A quick skim through the minefield of information online seems to signal that this is going to be an ordeal given that only a limited amount of these discs were ever produced, & no aftermarket ones appeared (I can only assume due to the lack of demand). It seems that the supply has fully drained up & only one site I can find on the net has them listed as in-stock, but they are listed at £250 which i'm willing to pay but the company won't ship to the UK from the USA.
Can anyone shed any further light on brake scenario I find myself in, are there any sites or dealers out there I've missed?. Does anyone have the exact dimensions of the brakes on the Phase 3?. If i cant source them can I revert the brakes to an older system off a Phase 2 or standard V70? I don't drive fast or aggressively so less performance (so longs as it stops) isn't the end of the world.
Thanks in advance
