Thank you K. I have been working on a CLK320 battery drain for two days. Finally repaired. Appreciate your videos.

Richard 1 My Pleasure!! what was causing the battery drain on the CLK320? I'm gonna work on a Sprinter next week that also has a battery drain!!

Very good video IMO. K doesn't use an impact wrench to break the calipers loose at first, uses a torque wrench as well as anti-seize, and double-checks everything afterwards. I saw another comment about replacing the rotors, particularly these cross-drilled rotors, and there's a few comments I have about that: - It's not easy to find a shop that turns rotors anymore let alone knowing how to turn cross-drilled rotors unless you want to be without your vehicle for a few days. - The interior side of this rotor was ground into fairly bad. - Buying new cross drilled rotors is generally the smarter option as opposed to being unsure about a Mechanic's ability to turn a rotor. Most of us are watching this video to do it ourselves , save a few bucks, and do it right. Taking a MB to the dealership or a mechanic is a luxury for some whereas we're here to make sure that we mechanically inclined people don't miss anything. Thanks K!

Great video. The only one that I found helpful. Most did not match my brake system. Can I jack my 2017 e550 Cabriolet from the rear differential in order to place jack stand in the proper location? I do not have a lift.

Is the caliper bracket bolt 13mm too?

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

@george2056 No! The caliper bracket bolts were 21mm, if I remember correctly!

[@george2056]

@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair Thank you for quick response. I'll let you know how it goes!

[@richardgill2220]

Nice video. I think the 13 mm caliper bolts have a torque requirement. No sure what it is.

Richard Gill Thank you!

[@erictran9290]

Pls post the brake pad and rotor pricing and where to buy ? Is there a replacement OEM part recommended?

open brake fluid reservoir first.

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

john lee No Don't leave master cylinder reservoir open. the fluid will absorb moisture in the air!

What brand rotors and pads?

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

DJ I believe, I installed a Napa Parts on it!

[@erictran9290]

Are these rotor and pads making noise? How are they comparing to the MB OEM brake?

[@aboaz1200]

Hello my dear friend, I have a Mercedes W211 E350 model 2006. Is it possible to change the brakes without programming a computer? I am honored by you. We follow you from Benghazi, Libya

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

ابوز يوسف what do you mean by programming the computer? I believe there isn't a computer reset procedure after you replace the front pads! besides erasing the brake wear message on the dash, and that might even go off by itself after you replace the sensors

[@djbelic821]

I believe your rotor is directional and on the wrong side

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

dj belic No it's not!

[@gardenst4398]

Brake pads & rotor makes? Defenitely not MB😝😝 At what kms has the car came in for rotor replacement? Please provide such info in your video description.
