Do Volvo V40 brake wheel cylinders need to be replaced?
If your Volvo V40 has drum brakes then there may come a time when the brake wheel cylinders need to be replaced.
Some modern vehicles have brake drums on the rear and others have brake rotors on the front and rear. If your V40 V40 has brake drums you will have brake wheel cylinders located inside the brake drum.
The drum brakes on your Volvo have brake wheel cylinders that use pistons to push the brake shoe linings against the drums, which is how your car comes to a stop.
