My advice for squeeling ML brakes; The new pads have to be "bedded" or broken in (first few miles of driving) by VERY heavy brake applications. Almost like repeated panic stops, extremely hard braking. What you would normally consider to be "a hard stop" is not enough for these huge brakes and you'll glaze the pads during the bedding process. squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelllllllll
