    Not sure if I should post separate from my other thread but it is a different subject so here goes: I've noticed that the brake pedal feels a bit notchy. I've had it where the brake pedal has not returned all the way and partially sticks on causing binding. It's called for me to flick the...

    S211 E320cdi brakes discs

    I'm planning on replacing discs and pads all round on my E320cdi Avantgarde estate 2007 model. Looking online at the usual parts suppliers, ECP and CP4less, even entering the reg comes up with a multitude of parts. I thought it would be Sport brakes or not. Some say for Sports suspension...

    CLK brakes

    My W209 (CLK320CDi Sport) needs new front discs and pads and new rear pads. I've never been overly impressed with the standard setup. Can anyone recommend a suitable upgrade that I should consider? I'm not looking for fancy looking things, just better braking performance. Many thanks in advance.

    GLC Brakes

    I picked up my new GLC (250D Sport) last Friday and I am enjoying it except for the brakes. They bite really well and inspire confidence at speed but when stopping, the last 10 - 15 mph seems to take massive pedal pressure, so much so that I am concerned for my wife driving the car. 250...

    Brakes failed

    Maybe they failed or maybe I've just discovered another daft design feature about modern cars. Parked the car in the garage after doing the weekly shop and 20mins later decided I would give it a wash. The garage floor slopes gently towards the door and my driveway slopes gently out to the road...

    ****! No brakes!

    https://www.facebook.com/ScottTuningFork/videos/855769447882065/ Reminds me of a school friend in his car when his brakes failed, going down a hill at a silly speed. He has a lisp, I still remember the sheer panic/laughter to this day "Thit, no brakeths!"

    CLS (219) Brakes ?

    I have a 2008 CLS 500 5.5, not an AMG so it has the normal brakes, the brakes are ok but expected better, suspect that they need a bit of fettling, I managed after a couple of stops from high speed to induce fade, something I have not experienced in a car in a long time, not horrendous but didnt...

    Tyre reccomendation and brakes question.

    I have just changed the meat slicer spare back for a new front tyre that Mrs. 203 unfortunately curbed in the petrol station. I'd forgotten we had already done 12 k on the Marshall Matracs and can thoroughly recommend them. Wear is even, grip fine and they run quietly as well as the car driving...
