My brakes are making a loud grinding noise when I brake at low speeds to a stop, such as when manoeuvring around my parking area. I have had my rear brake pads replaced before, and I was told at the time the fronts had around 40% left, so I assume they have worn out now... ECP have a good...

Hi, I've recently fitted a genuine MB rear discs and pads to my Vito 150 long and now I'm getting a rubbing/howling sound from the o/s. I've had the handbrake shoes (which are fine) cleaned up and adjusted but the noise keeps coming back and only when steering to the right even ever so slightly...

Can anyone tell me what size(s) of ring spanner I need to remove the rear brake hoses? Obviously want to make sure I have everything I need before disconnecting anything. Also, any other tips on this job would be appreciated, car failed the MOT on rusty brake pipes up in the wheel wells. I've...

Hi i was just about to purchase some new genuine front discs and pads for my 120 vito but i'm not 100% sure if they should be bosch or brembo.My Vito is an october 2007 model.£147 for the discs,pads and sensors seems like good value. Does anyone have any idea which type my front discs would...

I friend has this warning pop up this morning, Limited brakes "Service brake Visit Workshop" (in white) "Esp defective Visit Workshop" "ABS defective Visit workshop" All the above in white, Is this the start of a SBC issue??:crazy:

Is there somebody else what uses his car only on the weekend? When I try to leave the garage my front pads seems to stick. Is this normal or is there something wrong with them?:dk:

I've looked through the various posts but can find no definitive answer. I have today changed the steering rack boot on a W163 ML270 and also replaced the brake discs and pads. After a drive of about 3 miles when accelerating a bit hard the BAS/ESP light has come on and will not go off upon...

I've labelled the above specific to mine but as far as I know this issue affects other models in the range too.. My vehicle went in for service the other week and I was advised that the Brakes were low and that the front discs in particular were bad. So I went to order a set from the dealers...

Hey guys, was going to try and replace the rear pads on my 2015 C Class. How do you move the rear calipers? I read you must move them using the vehicle menu but I cant get any menu to appear. Any information would be appreciated. I did try to do a search but it kept coming up with a process...

Please could I ask some opinions on brakes and tyres of this model? Could I ask in your replies whether you own this particular model and what variation? We own a C220d Sport Estate (S205) from new (bought December 2014) and have had to replace tyres and rear discs and pads at what I consider...

Booked in for rear pad replacement on Thursday. they started to squeak today which I know to be a safety warning to ensure you don't forget. Can I keep driving on them until Thursday? Squeaking has disappeared

As part of the deal on my car , a 2012 c220 estate ,the B3 service is a freebie. It involves amongst other things changing the brake fluid. Upon return nothing amiss until I drove it. In a word the brakes don't work as well as they did when it went in !!! No other brake parts were changed...

Hi - Im having a problem and looking for help if possible. I have a 2000 ML270, it has recently started aggressively braking the drivers side front wheel as I am traveling a low speeds (this is without me using the brakes and traveling in a straight line). Its clearly not safe to drive so I have...

I have a complete set of genuine discs pads and wear sensors for sale of anybody wants them.

I will need to replace discs and pads on my next service. I would be interested in suggestions for suppliers if you have any. I don't want to compromise on quality but of course cheaper is good too. What can you suggest? Thanks.

Dear all, I'm looking forward to buying a W211 (E Class) pre-facelift (2003 to 2006). I've heard that there are concerns about the Bosch SBC (sensotronic brake control) module. Should I buy a mint W211 E Class or drop the idea because of such concerns? I've also...

Hi All Just had MOT done on c220 estate(W203) and failed on a few things. Most are sorted just the suspension arms to fit on monday. I have had a sticking handbrake the last 5 or so years. if i pull it up with my feet, the light stays off. This year it stayed on and the rear brakes seem to...

So promised myself I'd wait until it was summer before taking the power up a notch (given that this is my first RWD car). That time is soon approaching and I'll looking to get booked in straight after our holiday in July. Only performance mod so far is Weistec decat downpipes and a Capristo...
