Brake pads for 1980 240D?
My light started flickering on the dash, so I need to inspect the brake pads. Does it say a name on the calipers so I know what pads to order,
Thanks, Jim

Answer
This link will help you identify the calipers.
BENDIX or ATE caliper? If the brake system is MB stock, these are your options. Brake Pad Sensor, x4 = 2 on each front wheel. MB# 140 540 12 17 Brake Pad Set, Front - 15 mm Thickness For Use with ATE Brand Calipers Only MB# 001 420 78 20 Brake Pad Set, Front - 17.5 mm Thickness For Use with BENDIX Brand Calipers MB# 005 420 45 20 Brake Pad Set, Rear MB# 001 420 06 20 .
