Squeaky brakes on 300SD

[gmask]

I put new brakes on this car in the fron and it still squeaks the previosu owner told us that their mechanic said it was common problem because the parts are not OEM. I though that sounded like BS but here we are with new brakes and they squeak after they have warmed up a bit.

It's only a common problem with worn brake components.
Check the slider pins for free without wear.
Check for piston sticking.
Use a sticky assembly lub on the pins...Versa-Chem synthetic brake caliper grease.

Jurid pads work quietest and others often exasserbate your problem.
None of the Mercedes I work on have noisy/squealing brakes...none !
