Green, Yellow, Red stuff are all crap mate.Some people will think the sun shines out of there hole but there is a lot better out there.Stick with the genuine Volvo pads unless you done mind spending up to £200 for a proper set of uprated pads

Talking New front Pads Good Quality

Hi there, like the previous gent said stick with Genuine pads or a good After Market Quality like (TRW Lucas) i have these on my 850 T5 and they are perfect, along with Febi Bilstein Disc's.

ferodo pads are good , FDB range are oe spec, FSL range are after market. You would be wasting your money on green pads or red ones
