For the 1.4 ? - I've had two sets of EBC Greenstuff on my 1.8, and they were very good indeed - only just changed to Cosworth Street Masters, due to my annual Autobahn 'blitz', and bloody German drivers ! - although they are paragons of virtue compared to the goddamn Belgians !!! (apologies to "Woette"
 )

Also - check the disk thicknesses - if close to the wear limit, change them as well, or you'll need new pads again for new disks |

Bleed through, not drain and refill or you will be chasing air out for months!
