That's the thing I don't like is high pedal effort. When I converted the 300SD to DOT 5 brake fluid my pedal went from OK to rock solid, almost no movement at all. The combination of the PBR Organic Pads, stone-ground Balo rotors and the silicone fluid give unreal braking performance for a big, heavy car.

When you put your foot on the brake, it is as if the pressure you input is multiplied several times without you ever pressing any harder on the pedal....
