Mercedes Classe M - Video tutorial

Model: Mercedes Classe M W163 - Years 1997-2005
Part: Brake pads
Operation: Replacement of brake pads

The brake pads have the role of tightening the brake disc to create friction that slows the rotation of the disc. Brake pads wear before discs, so they need to be changed more often. To change the pads it is necessary to lift the car on a support and remove the wheels from the axle. It is necessary to push the brake cylinder piston, using a screwdriver. Disassembly must be carried out on one pair of pads at a time. To disassemble the caliper and remove the pads, the clips and springs must be removed. When removing the pads you have to pay attention to how the components are arranged to be sure to position everything properly during reassembly.
