If you are only doing pads, no need to remove caliper. Just remove 2 pins, plus center rod. Pads will slide out from top. Great video

[@ricardobandz4670]

Pads come out from the top after removing the pins and the retainer clip ,no need to remove the caliper completely unless you are changing the rotors .

[@rickellenberger3993]

Good point if you're pressed for time and need to get her back on the road.

[@rickzieber4267]

Also should make sure to go back and flip that part that holds your pads and pins as you installed the drivers side wrong.

[@ronsinson1989]

No disrespect but I appreciate when people make diy, how to video repairing and fixing cars with not the best tools not everyone can afford snap-on and MAC tools, I’m one of them. Good video keep up the good work my friend

[@sfneurosurgeon]

Thank you! I was just thinking about doing this on my W222 instead of paying the independent mechanic. Looks simple enough.

[@WayneARobertson]

Yea, it becomea simpler each time you do it.

[@daviddelacy9927]

Great video.Thanks for taking the time to record and share your repair. Its funny how some people criticize and not give praise but they've never done a help video. Keep up the good work!

[@WayneARobertson]

Thank You. Appreciate it.

[@rickellenberger3993]

Wayne, exceptional and detailed video. Your service works on a 2017 Daimler Benz S550 too. FYI finish torque on those caliper bolts is a whopping 135 Newtons. So yank hard on that torque wrench in the downward direction. I don't like to 'break' bolts with a ratchet. I used a straight 21 mm combination wrench. At 14 inches long it has plenty of torque. I have also used your videos sucessfully for rear brakes, rotors, accessory battery change, and plugs. These machines are heavy and robusto. Not your typical Japanese 'lightweight' brake system. Der Beste oder NICHTS!! I conservatively estimate your videos has saved me over $2000 by turning wrenches in my garage versus paying through the nose at the local MB dealership. Regards, Rick.

[@WayneARobertson]

I love your comment about saving money. It made me smile. It is one of the reason why I started the channel. I went to Aviation High School and the the time, The College of Aeronautics, now it called the Vaghn School of Aviation. That is where I got most of my Mechanical experience.

[@rickellenberger3993]

@@WayneARobertson I had a DB 280SLC (W123) when I was in Germany in 1990 and bought the metric tools back then. Saving money on the car maintenance lets me fly the airplane more. Plus I enjoy working on my own vehicles. That way, I know the maintenance and services were done correctly and not "pencil whipped" when the shop is pressed for time. For some reason, Import mechanics charge $150 per hour. The local MB dealership gets $800 for changing you spark plugs??? and then they overcharge you on repair parts too?? Everyone who enjoys Daimler Benz motoring cannot be a Physician or a Barrister. So we're the ones with the skinned knuckles and dirty fingernails!! Ignore the critics and sharpshooters on youtube, your efforts are valued and appreciated by this sextagenerian. "If it ain't right on the ground, it DOESN'T get better in the air."

[@dollazearneztv3742]

Yo, real good video, very detailed down to the tools. I got a 2015 and my fronts are squeaking, thought It might be difficult , till I saw your video. I'm a beginner far as the mechanical aspects. But I'm trying to be more hands on with my cars. Save some money. So thanks Bro for sharing the knowledge. I'll be watching. DollazEarnEZ

[@dakotakohler5955]

Good job on this video man!! I know not too many appreciate it. But I do!

[@WayneARobertson]

Thanks a lot. I appreciate it

[@moemoe9015]

No need for any tools for Caliper Pistons either. In the caliper housing just push the old brake pads evenly against the rotor.

[@tlawso04]

On my 2000 fifteen, you don't compress the caliper you go into the menu settings with the car in the own position and there's a break service feature you hit OK on that feature and it opens the calipers for you. If you forced them open, you could actually damage them

[@WayneARobertson]

For this car that feature is on the rear brake pad and it works.

[@apakin31]

Thank you.

[@WayneARobertson]

Your Welcome.

[@ivanpyro9800]

I have the same exact car where did you buy those brake pads?

[@VelvetHammer1]

You never want to loosen the wheel lug bolts that much without taking most of the weight off the wheel by jacking the car up. Quarter turn should do it. You also do not have to remove the calipers if you are just doing a pad swap. Technically you do not have to remove the caliper to replace the rotor either as it will slide into the caliper without the pads in place. You also missed the high temp grease on the slide points of the pads, that thing is going to squeal like a pig.

[@anthonywilliams4100]

Brake fluid is a highly hydroscopic fluid, your brake reservoir should never be left open, especially with high air humidity (dew on the windshield).

[@narcis.05]

I had really tough time with the pins at a garage,they said they will try to take them out completely but most likely will bend and need new ones,they have done it after 2 hours of banging but very dificult to take them out

[@WayneARobertson]

Sounds good. The pins normally come out very easily. Your pins probably got rusted and stuck.

[@harviechilders8834]

I'm thinking of buying a 2015-2015 S550. How has yours been for you? Thanks.

[@WayneARobertson]

My var is fine. Trouble free. Stay on top of the maintenance and if you can get a CPO with some warranty still left in it, that will be good. I did it with both cars 2016 S550 and 2018 S560. It will be worth it.

[@harviechilders8834]

@@WayneARobertson Thanks. I've been watching your site to see how to do things.

I'm going to assume it's the same procedure for the s550 coupe. Thanks.

[@WayneARobertson]

Your Welcome!!!

[@cornelbey4395]

Yo Wayne I changed my front pads and sensor on my s550. I replaced the break fluid that came out.. Also pumped the brakes but now won't shift out of park... only says APPLY BRAKE TO SBIFT. Paddle goes all the way down and my fluid reservoir is full. Do you have an idea of what I didn't do correctly?

[@WayneARobertson]

It sounds your car is still in park mode. Make sure you to take it out of park mode. Make sure you car has a brick on each of your tires to prevent the car from rolling away. Make sure you put brake fluid in the rrservoir and tighten the cap.

[@GrimesGarage]

If you only replaced pads, you should NOT have lost any fluid. Did you put the vehicle in brake service mode prior to the job?

[@nnjvhvhhgc5213]

Where can I get a set of those Benz brake calipers? Do they only have sets for the front wheels?

[@WayneARobertson]

Yes, you can order the brake calipers online. Please see the video on How to get Parts for the W222 2016 Mercedes Benz S550: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJ7RfZeNncyir9E

[@nnjvhvhhgc5213]

@@WayneARobertson Thanks.

[@nnjvhvhhgc5213]

@@WayneARobertson I see they have the brake calipers on some of those sites, but they don't specify if they are the calipers that says Mercedes on them. Where do I get them from?

[@WayneARobertson]

If you want to be 100% sure that the Mercedes emblem is written on the calipers, you can do two things, call that website and asked them, or you can buy the parts from the Mercedes Dealership. Just give them the caliper part number.

[@nnjvhvhhgc5213]

No need to remove the Caliper

Car wont go into drive after changing pads 🤔

[@WayneARobertson]

Did you release the parking brakes? The parking breaks is highlighted in red

[@user-qr8kr4by2y]

@@WayneARobertson I was wondering before swapping the pads should you release the parking brake?

[@WayneARobertson]

Did you check to make sure your parking brake is engaged or not?

[@farrock02]

Please do some research before working on your car. Especially when working on your brakes. 1. you removed your calipers for no reason. Just about all brembo calipers allow for removal of pads without removing the caliper. 2. Youre making an instructional video and not torquing your caliper bolts back to spec. 3. You didnt clean up that brake fluid the spilled ( big no no) ... Bro its your BRAKES..

[@WayneARobertson]

Doolie Noted

[@Mikea6972]

Rookie sensation here... Your removed the caliper for what? And you opened the brake fluid res for what? Come on man. Learn to do the correct brake job first before posting nonsense.

[@WayneARobertson]

Did you see the 2nd video changing the Front brake pads for the W222 2018 Mercedes Benz S560? It has been updated to remove brake pads without removing the brake caliper. And yes, you MUST remove the brake fluid cap, when pushing the caliper back. Damage could occur if you ate not careful, so to exercise caution over carelessness, I would highly recommend it.

[@GrimesGarage]

@@WayneARobertson we push 2bar through the reservoir when flushing brakes on Benz. The caps are vented one way to allow air to escape. No reason to remove the cap. Caliper doesn’t need to be removed, the pads pull out of the top.
