Well that took a while…better late then never.
Life got in the way but I finally fixed the issue.
It was indeed the Integrated control unit.

Thanks again for thinking along.
When I mentioned I have driven the car very hard I meant I had done so on a few occasions.
And non of those happened after the first change to the Brembo discs/Pads.I now have also replaced al the brake fluid and bled all the brakes lines.
Also changed the power steering fluid and the last balljoint (Tie end) that had not been changed yet.
For this I used a old big bicycle water bottle with a tube I would squeeze the air out of the bottle and when letting go of the bottle with the hose submersed in the brake fluid and power steering fluid it would suck it up.
I will also change the axle as one boot has a little hole in it since the last time it was at a “Specialist” in Holland.
Also noticed a minor sideways play in the axle carrier bearing.
After this I will replace the discs with Ate and Ate pads as Ate made the whole brake system.
If the problem then still persists it only leaves the wheel bearings but they have no play at all.
Mind you the Volvo only drove 121.9k KM / 75.7k Miles now

Thanks for the reply Carl.
The issue is that it does not fit trough due to the wider part and I am searching/looking now to see if I need to take something more out to get it in or if it is completely the wrong axle.

Well I ordered a new passenger side drive shaft and tie rod end.
One step forward two steps back…
Gave all the details rechecked all information twice and asked my wife to check if I missed something..
This is what I got send home :pinch:All measurements are the same except for the fact that the original has a narrow end and the new one does not…pictures explain more then I can in English

Thanks for your input Barney.
What I mean is can a disc be damaged because the ABS is working on one side improperly.
Meaning it starts working as ABS and causes a trembling in the steering wheel.Another things is that after jacking up the car on the front and putting it down the trembling/shaking stays away for a while…

Ok so not sure what to think of this but I checked the ABS sensors even though it gave no warning lights.
One had a little dust blanket on it covering the opening side which might have cause the ABS to partially work on one side.
I cleaned this now and the trembling seems less but it is still there.
Could it be that the disc has been damaged due to this ABS working on that side?
Drove more then 3k with this issue now and also been to 3 garages who can say nothing but change the disc and pads.
After changing those 3 times I am sure the issue was caused by something else…Could it have been the ABS Sensor and that that messed up my Disc.?
Really want to narrow down the issue before spending on a new set of Discs and Pads again. :dry:
Also looked at the bearing and there is no side to side play anywhere..

Thank you for thinking along Eric much appreciated.
At the moment the only part that is still on the car that was changed before the issues started are the Brembo pads.
So I am thinking it is either the pads or the calliper, brake hose, or master cylinder that is causing this.
I do not have the money at the moment to get new discs or pads or anything else but when I can I will be getting OEM discs and pads and check the brake hoses calliper and master cylinder before installing.
The problems occurred when I had not driven the car hard once and before I changed with the old setup I did drive the car very hard so I am sure that is not the cause of it.
I checked the wheel bearings too and there is no play or noise.
