Just picked up some replacement rear discs and pads for my coupe from the classifieds here (thank you @dokalj :))
If I remember correctly there's a correct sequence or method for installing these and setting up/adjusting the handbrake which consists of brake shoes inside the rear disc hub, like...
@DavidL unfortunately I can't help you there, but will add this additional info,
I had a similar issue with my C-Class Coupe last year, and identified a number of things, might be relevant to anyone coming across this thread.......
1. EML - can't remember the exact message, but it flagged 2...
Given this is the second reply I've had to make adding extra info shows why, you should always do these types of threads right away while stuff is still fresh in your mind :wallbash:
Someone asked me about the indicator cables changing colour/stripe colours, and did I have to lengthen...
Interestingly, in the associated/similar threads section below this thread, was a link to this one.....

sounds like a similar issue to yours, but the thread is incomplete with no "outcome" / follow up posts, might be...
Travel an hour north and visit @richard and @Alfie at COMAND located in Lightwater, not sure i'd trust anyone else as much with this kind of work to be honest, knowledge and experience is key
I wouldn't want to bet on it, Mercs tend to be a bit temperamental like that and a STARS setup is usually required before going and messing around with stuff, but more importantly, a knowledge of what you're messing with is equally as important.
It would be a touch worrying if there were a way...
if you put your vin number into the box top right on this page, it'll give you the data card with options etc and engine type Mercedes-Benz Teilekatalog (Ersatzteile online)
Just a quick update on this, as i've had the work done now, so figured i'd post up the costs (they actually charged less than quoted because it went smoothly, hence quicker - first time for everything!)
Costs (excl VAT) were:
Lower Suspension Arms (x2) @£55 ea, Coil Spring (Kilen) x1 @£43.19...
Do they double as puddle lights ?
If it's software related, and linked to whatever the dealership did they should put it right, failing that i'd ask @richard or @Alfie at Comand Online (to be honest, i'd probably ask them first lol)
I think we've all done that at one point or another, I put a couple of grand into mine in a 12 month period 2-3 years ago, and have just had to have another 850's worth, and yes, those dam front to back brake pipes are costly as 'F' ! fortunately, I was able to find a local garage that just did...
when i got the brabus wheels for my coupe, i basically relegated the original wheels to winter use, and fitted the standard sizes to those (17" and staggered) told the insurance about the upgrade, and that it would likely only be for half the year, they were interested in the new wheels...
Having just read back through my posts above, I need to stress one thing, when sizing the new loom length, make sure the mirror frame is in the folded position, because its in that position that all the slack is taken up, and the full length of the loom is required.
Part 4 (and final part).....
So, there we have it, fully working 203 model C-Class mirror frames that won't break if you set them to auto fold on locking, just some final shots of the repair/modification once complete, and once back on the car, with the frame in folded and normal positions and...
So, having repaired your loom, and as you can see from the images I've already posted, we're going to take a completely different route to the motor socket, utilising all of the space inside the cover to allow the cable loom to expand out into which should work quite well, that just leaves the...
