Anthony @ DIYautotech working with his fellow colleague Raj on a Mercedes Benz C230 Sport. We take you through the steps on replacing front and rear brake pads, front rotors, and how to install new brake wear indicator sensors on a modern day vehicle. Please subscribe & enjoy!
Brembo brakes made for Mercedes. Just changed out rotors and pads yesterday on the same vehicle (C230 sport kompressor). While cleaning the caliber, noticed the Brembo logo on the back in the upper side. I just used OEM pads and rotors from MB. Good video.
at 5:10, you meant hammering the rotor. great selection of brake pads, AKEBONO! very little to none brake dust and noise yet big stopping power compared to factory ones!
Hi there, a long time since anyone commented but I thought I'd give it a go.
Good video, a lot of background noise louder than your commentary & I would like to add some information you might find useful?
Do not use Copper or any other metal based ‘anti-seize’ compounds on the edges (sides) of the brake pads - this will actually cause problems later when the pads start sticking in place.
Anti-seize compounds are NOT lubricants. They are for assembly use (i.e. Nuts & bolts/fasteners) so they can more easily be undone again when required. The metal based compounds will actually promote corrosion (due to electrolytic action) and will eventually form a sticky paste that will harden & stop the pads moving. Hence scored & worn disks.
It is OK on the pad rears/piston as it helps reduce brake squeal, however, Most pads now have an anti squeal 'shim' stuck to the back of them to do this instead but you can still 'butter' them if you want.
I would recommend trying a ceramic (non-metal) based grease to lubricate the edges of the pads & Caliper runners. That should help keep your brakes in good working order. You can get them off Amazon/ebay/Halfords etc.
This youtube video is great! One of the best I have seen. Lighting is very good. Each step is explained. Embedded text is helpful. I wish every how to video was like this one.
I've just watched about a dozen tutorials before doing the brakes on my CLK350. This is the best of the lot.
4 years later, still great information, thank you.
Good Video, thank you!
Please make sure no other people try to troll you video by talking about their drop sealing or other stuff. Its kind of annoying when you're trying to watch an learn ;-)
Nice video, describing how to replace brake pads, rotors and brake in #Mercedes Benz. Great job, Keep on sharing such videos
Good stuff
Appreciate it from CA USA
Thanks for the effort you have put into making this vedeo....very helpfull
@spelunkerd Oops, I meant the rotor alignment screw, that single screw that holds the rotor in place before you put the wheel and caliper back on.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
Nice video, thanks. Learned a couple of new techniques. Good job!
Nice job, Anthony. I've never seen a Mercedes done before. Looks solid. Of course what stands out is the difference with most other brake systems. Do you lubricate the sliders? What with? I notice that you use nickel antiseize rather than 'brake quiet'. Is that your shop preference or is it specific for Mercedes? Do you need to put antiseize on the caliper alignment screw? Sometimes that can be hard to get off, and it seems redundant....
Awesome Guys! I allready cleared my Maintenace B message from 1 1/2 years of being there and great tips on replacing my front breaks since I have a Brake Wear message as well. Any tips on getting the cam sensor to stop coming up. It only does it after ~4,500 miles with out an oil change and will clear itself for a bit, but then come back. It will only stay away when the oil is changed.
Didn't know how the wear indicator worked. Makes sense now.
WELL DONE, VERY HELPFUL
Man, these guys are awesome!
Видео толковое. Не уделяете внимание на состоянии поршней и пыльников, измерение биения. Отработанный фиксатор резьбы следует удалять перед нанесением нового.
Excellent video! Thanks for sharing.
One question. At the 16:44 time mark, there is a black hose hanging down just above the hammer. Do you know what that hose is for? I also have this on my 2006 C230 Sport. Thanks again for sharing...
Must they keep blocking the view of the camera..frustrating
Thanks for great video.. I had tried to replace rear pad on my 2001 C200 Kompressor and the message still shown BRAKE LINING WEAR.. Could you please advise.
Do you have any video's showing how to replace a fuel filter and a serpentine belt for a 2007 c230 sport?
great job & great video guys. very detailed
What brands or type of rotors and pads where used? Looked like ceramic on the front!
Great video ! What brand are the rotors and where can I get them? Thanks
Hi, My meredes c280 has done 78k km. Please let me do I need to replace only the brake pads or also the Rotors?
Thanks. Very helpful.
Fantastic guys - thank you very much.
very helpful. thanks DIY auto tech
when u compress the cylinder into the bore to remove the pads wont the brake fluid leak from the reservoir
great work thanks guys !
Great video. Thank you for uploading.
What torque value for wheel lugs/bolts?
Thanks for the info
Do you have to bleed the brakes after your finished. I noticed that you didn't
First I would like to thank you guys for this video. I do however have a question or possibly two questions one which I could probably find on a forum. First question why are the slotted holes facing One Direction on the right side and facing the opposite on the left? Also I’ve had my brakes on for a while and never had any issues but now it feels like my brake rotors are either warped or the ABS is stuttering. I have new tires in the front. The wheel doesn’t shake it just feels like the brakes are stuttering. Any suggestions to that? My car is as well a 2007 C230. Thanks Aaron
Just wanted to know if this is the same with a 2005 c230 kompressor? What and where can I buy each part so that I may start having fun doing my car =D thank you for making this video!!!!
Or just buy from the Mercedes dealer them selves?
Hmmm, so the 135ftlb torque is clearly too high for the two 18mm caliper bolts, with loctite blue (or my torque wrench is stuffed), read around and many agree that dropping torque settings with loctite by around 20% is a good move given that it's more of a lubricant. I successfully stretched one bolt and broke another following this advice. Looking through the SLK forums I found a more reasonable number of 115NM or 85 ftlb. Source: www.slkworld.com/slk-r171-class-diy/13874-replace-rotors-pads-05-slk.html
yep. Owners manual says 85 foot pounds. Not sure where his number came from.
Hi Anthony, does the brake sensors need to be replaced each time pads are replaced? Thanks.
Hey, where is the sensor for the rear brake pads ? Thanks
Hi Anthony, I also wanted to know, how many sensors are required? Thanks.
embedded text good for us older folks
Can’t remove alignment pins. can you advise something?
How do you lubricate the caliper pins?
hello am new to doing brakes, but i need to change my pads but they asked me what caliber pistons do i have in my car, apparently there are 1,2, and 4...how do i know which one i need
EXCELLENT, Thank you
Great video boys, thumbs UP!
😅😂 when someone needs to fire the camera guy
Thank you i love you!!🙏🏼
is the 1 piston o 2 piston caliper
Excellent
The ouch problem is that those PINS have a sharp edge ok if you bend one of them with that hammer and punch you just cost yourself a good $80 for new pins. Also when installing those pins a light coat of antisieze on the pins very light will make them slide alot easier.
First time I heard of apply anti seize on a brake pads or on a brake job for that matter. Wow crazy lord!
Does anybody know if a 2005 Mercedes c230 has rear brake sensors? I see none, the old nor the new brake pads for the rear have holes or a slot to where a sensor may plug in...nor do I see any plug on the assembly for a sensor...The front DO have holes in the pads for the sensor and a sensor came with it. Nothing came with the rear brake pads. I am stumped. I'm replacing rotors as well, but on this car I see NO rear sensors anywhere. The car did indicate it needs brake replacement, but the front brakes are still good so it can not be the front sensors that caused the indication, yet I can find no rear sensors.
I just dont understand when he says 97 ft lbs... I mean if this is a DIY, I just dont know how many pounds im pushing or..?? Im not sure someone please explain. And TY for the vid.
finally we get the girls butt , thank very well done
How much does it cost? I am kind of shaky about going to mechanic store to do so since they might burn my little budget.
This would be much better if you had an EXACT tool list before you get started. Such as Torx size and number etc ,,,,,,,,,,
Just watched the video on how to replace the pads & rotors on a c230, my question is, is replacing the rear rotors the same procedure as the front? I want to replace both the front and rear rotors. Is there anything I should look out for in replacing the rear?
George De La Rosa Replacing the rear rotors is the exact same procedure. Compress the caliper before you remove the old pads, its has two bolt (top and bottom) just like in front. Its all the same procedure he preformed removing the front rotor.
Thanks
nice
Is it the same with R350
how important is the anti siezing and the blue thing? my mechanic i go to for break changes doesnt seem to put on this stuff
Not that important just peace of mind knowing it won't unscrew while on the freeway
just dont tighten the lugs too tight or they can brake inside the threads.
his wrench stops at a certain force which would be 97 ft lbs.
on an impact gun connected to a compressor dont compress any more than 100lbs in the tank.
Really good video. Even had a bit of lady action in there.
8 of 10 would watch again. :)
Song?
What size are the rotors for the front? I ordered a set of rotors that Partsgeek.com says were for the front of the 07 C230. They are 10.2 inches though and much smaller than the rotors on the car already.
The Partsgeek site is completely wrong. Use RockAuto next time it's much better. The front rotor sizes for this '07 C250 2.5 V6 Sport is 330 mm diameter which is 12.992". Even the rear rotors are significantly larger than the "10.2 inches" the website says.
hi, can you please tell me the name and the brand of the bolt remover ( Wrench) you used at 18:14 .
air impact gun
thanks, and the brand ?
What if you don't have an air impact gun? Then you resort to a 1/2 wrench and a mallet. The upper bolt holding the caliper is way more difficult because you need the exact right extension and don't forget the mallet.
He didn't bleed?
19:59 WoW
First time I heard of applying anti seize on a brake pads or brake job for that matter. WOW! Amateur.
Where do y'all get Mercedes parts? And can anyone get parts from there? And thank you for your time and making these video's. I'm about to buy a 07 Mercedes c230 with 148000 miles on it. Anything that I need to check or look out for? Thanks again!
+John Pearce Ebay. Just make sure it's compatible.
I just got rotors, pads and sensors all the way around for a little over $200 from Rockauto.com
Heck of a bargain!
In the beginning of the video the chatter between the other onlookers was excessive otherwise this was a good instructional video.
I have the exact same mercedes just wondering how many brake wear sensors are there in total so I know how many to buy
+mark saucedo Did you ever find out how many break sensors they have?
yes it was just one on the passenger front brake
Thanks!!!
+mark saucedo You know I said right there in the video, 1 break sensor in the front.
This guy is hilarious...acts like he knows what he's doing but has a mechanic perform the actual work.
you'd probably save a few gloves if you remove all the old rotors first and installing all 4 new rotors at the same time. but im guessing you do that since this is a video..
thanks for the help. did my brakes on my S430 my self , and changed the front rotors too.
check my video out on how to jumpstart a benz with trunk locked. u kno the battery is in trunk
oddshock824 says, "I just dont understand when he says 97 ft lbs... I mean if this is a DIY, I just dont know how many pounds im pushing or..?? Im not sure someone please explain. And TY for the vid."
search "torque wrench" ~ sets the torque settings at the desired ft lbs on the caliper bolts & lug bolts... listen for that click & that is tight enough...
PS: skip to 19:55 for the nice view!
Ft pounds is how tight the bolts must be according to Mercedes Benz specs. The way you know how many ft pounds is by using a torq wrench you would set the wrench to 97 ft pounds then tighten until the wrench clicks letting you know it's at set ft pounds
***** ??? i already replied to oddshock824 a year ago... dunno why you replied to this since i already have a 3/8" drive and 1/2" drive torque wrenches

Great Video, Thanks for saving me 800$
lol.. if you have to be SAE certified , in order to do change brake pads or rotors.. ..
Its like you have to be a McDonald Certified in order to flip burgers!
So next you rush SAYING SAE certified,, um make sure it makes sense.
You forgot to clean and adjust the hand brake (Inside rear rotors). small drum... What about that...?????? Mercedes doesn't use grover washers..Thats why the Blue Loctite...9 to 10...
nice video guys, i found that to be very informative, but god damn, the car is dirty man...
Private Ryan soca
He is a clumsy mechanic but get the job done hehe.
They don't show how to remove REAR rotors!
What Tom said..
Wheel assemblies? Really
change brake sensor
and you have your video first that is powerful I didn't have to go any further . once a junkyard dog always a junkyard dog.
Anybody dare to change out the pads on a 2007 E350? It's way harder than this caliper.

Unfortunately even though most of the practices were good, the camer-work was appalling. All the detail bits were blocked by the mechanic and poor placement of the camera. Very disappointing.
didn't they install the front rotors backwards???
Thanks for the effort you have put into making this vedeo....very helpfull
