Frequently Asked Brake Service Questions
1) How often should I replace brake fluid on my Mercedes?
Every 2 years (time-based), regardless of mileage. Brake fluid absorbs moisture, lowering the boiling point and risking fade or corrosion.
2) My dash says “Brake—Visit Workshop.” Can I still drive?
Short trips at low speed may be safe, but book an inspection immediately. The warning often indicates low pad thickness or a sensor circuit issue.
3) Do I need OEM pads and rotors?
OEM maintains factory feel and low noise. We also offer high-quality equivalent or AMG-grade performance friction. We’ll explain pros/cons for your driving.
4) Why do my brakes squeal after service?
Fresh components can squeal briefly during the bedding-in period. If noise persists beyond a few days of normal driving, we’ll recheck fitment and chamfers.
5) Can you service AMG and carbon-ceramic brakes?
Yes. We follow AMG procedures and torque specs, including proper handling of carbon-ceramic discs and compatible pad compounds.
Disk Brake Service
A disc brake is a type of brake that uses calipers to squeeze pairs of pads against a disc in order to create friction that slows the rotation of the wheel(s)….more
The main components of a disc brake are:
- the brake pads
- the caliper, which contains a piston,
- the rotor, which is mounted to the hub
Drum Brake Service
The drum brake may look complicated, and it can be pretty intimidating when you open one up. Let’s break it down and explain what each piece does.
Like the disc brake, the drum brake has two brake shoes and a piston. But the drum brake also has an adjuster mechanism, an emergency brake mechanism and lots of springs…more
Brake Fluid Flush
Brake fluid is possibly the single most neglected component of the automobile.
Most high performance drivers check their tire pressures and change their engine oil at frequent intervals, but virtually no one ever changes the brake fluid in their street car.
Brake fluid will not be able to handle the heat when it is contaminated…more
ABS/STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM
Most vehicles come standard with ABS and some level of traction control, while others include optional stability and roll-over mitigation systems.
Failing to properly repair these systems can put the driver at risk, especially in vehicles with a high center of gravity.
If the ABS light is on, request diagnostic time to identify and resolve the issue…more
