well upon checking the brakes---the finding was--- new pads all round--- one new caliper needed in rear---one broken bolt to remove in passenger front--could have been worse I suppose--But I noticed the bellows were cracked and perished --so any tips on replacement or things to avoid--I was supprised how much they cost

Surface cracks in the bellows are normal & happen with-in a couple of years. Deep cracks are the ones that will send you "down". Mercedes says that the complete air chamber should be removed to replace the bellows but I've replaced a bunch w/o that much work.
