Wow! I was doing a little research on replacing the front brake pads. figuring brake pads be brake pads...and have discovered that Mercedes uses 4 piston fixed calipers....damn it! Very few use 4 piston fixed calipers
BMW doesn't, SAAB doesn't, VW doesn't. The only ones I know of are like Porche and Ferrari and like them there. But, low and behold, it's not a floating single piston caliper, no, it's a fixed 4 piston caliper which only increases the potential of non-piston retraction by 400% per wheel. This is great.... What are the chances of simply throwing $21 worth of brake pads at this and having it actually work? Thanks
