Hi Mike:

Thanks for your reply. I called MB yesterday and they recommended to look at the pads because sometimes too much heat on the pads falsely triggers the alarm. I took the car to a specialized break shop and the front pads are about 1/8" to 1/16" thick.

The technician said I could drive some 1,000 Km more. This will give me time and pad lining to bring them from Europe this coming Christmas.

Best regards

Mariano
