►Maintaining the rear brakes on your Mercedes is an essential part of keeping your vehicle safely on the road. If you are experiencing shuddering while braking, can feel a lip on the edge of the rotors, or can visibly see the pads getting low - it's time to service your Mercedes' braking system. This DIY is applicable to most W212 chassis Mercedes.
In this video, Kyle Bascombe, our Mercedes catalog manager, takes you through the steps required to get the job done. You'll learn how to remove and replace the brake rotors and brake pads, as well as other valuable diagnoses such as inspecting your tires for uneven wear.

Thanks for doing this!! The E-Class community really needs this kind of material as it’s not common for people to DIY these cars until later in their life spans.

Hey Kyle! Greetings from Finland. Awesome and helpful video. Just did the brakes on my ´12 W212 with the help of your video on our driveway. Took me 1 hour/ side following your video. Keep up the goog work! Axel

I will be buying something from FCP Euro on my next tool haul just because they have a variety of people representing their company. Because a variety of people make up this country A lot of other companies make great effort to show only one type of person to represent their company Keep the videos coming

Awesome video! Instructions down to a T. Only additional tip is a T40 bit is needed instead of 7mm HEX (for removing caliper pins) on my 2008 W211. The suggestion for a breaker bar for the rotor bolts is right now. There was no way I could have loosened it without it. If doing this job with jack stands you can only use a breaker bar up to 18". Any longer would not have enough clearance. Perfect step by step instructions. Thanks Kyle!

A standard C clamp works great to push the piston back into the caliper as well.

@yogib37 3 года назад

I like to put lube on the wheel hub it makes it easier. also you can use a C-clamp. You can put the old pad there and use that to push it back evenly. I always do that Seems to work great

@pavloivchenko9806 3 года назад

Don't forget to control liquid level in brake fluid tank under the hood while retracting pistons to calipers. It can overflow and damage paint.

@G_G_AutoCareLLC 2 года назад

Very true especially when people wait too long to replace brakes 🤦‍♂️

@gkelly941 3 года назад

To keep things under control, I wouldn't remove the rotor screw until you are ready to take the rotor off, but I think Kyle is right about when to loosen it. I use three kinds of cleaning brushes to clean things up, stiff nylon for brake dust, brass for light corrosion, and stainless steel for heavy corrosion and the threads on bolts. On older Benzes, the manual prescribes using new bolts with encapsulated thread locker or blue Loctite on the caliper bolts and the rotor screw. I apply a thin coating of anti-seize on the contact surfaces of the hub and rotor so it will come apart next time. It would be great if Kyle could provide torque specs for the caliper and bracket bolts and the wheel lugs. Great video. Shows how easy this job actually is. Don't forget to reset the parking brake shoes after replacing the rear rotors.

@gkelly941 3 года назад

For 2003 - 2006 E320s and E500s with SIS brakes, remove the fuse for the brakes before working on them.

@lenclayton1100 3 года назад

Very well done diy video,only thing is depending on the year the caliper pins(bolts)will be a T40 torx and not a 7mm,if you have the T40's be carefull they are tight and you must stay real square and apply hard inward pressure to break loose as they will strip very easy,when you get them out throw them in the trash and buy a replacement set from NAPA like 4 bucks and they will be 7mm heads much better,

@julianbonser 9 месяцев назад

Hello Kyle, a very enlightening video - thanks. I have a 2012 E500 Coupe and I want to just replace the disks. The pads have just been replaced so there won't be an issue with just replacing the discs. Is possible to remove the complete disc brake assembly by simply undoing the two bolds that hold the assembly to the chassis? I realise I'll have to retract the pads a little to get over the wear lip. Regards from the UK.

If your warning brake light is on the dash it will need to be replaced. If you are changing the pads that are still have life left in them then no.

@brucecochran7625 2 года назад

Very helpful video. I am having a very difficult time removing the rear rotors. I recall it being said that for northern cars, they can be a challenge to remove. Any tips on how best to get them free?

@fcpeuro 2 года назад

Hi Bruce, oftentimes they can be very stuck on there. It would be best to grab a good size hammer and work the rotor all the way around until it pops off.

what’s the thickness of the rear rotor?

@Suhail.Khan-24 3 года назад

nice video kyle =) would you recommend bleeding the brakes after changing rotors and pads? ive changed mine on all 4 corners but my brakes are still poor and they dont bite well. i have bled them twice. what would you recommend? thanks

@systemsbroken 3 года назад

After - I also suggest speed bleeders...(no, I am not Kyle). Speed bleeders make any car much easier to bleed the brakes.

@kenarai7940 3 года назад

Thanks for great video! when the disc roater stuck with a hub, where is the good points to hit? and how hard would it be?

@fcpeuro 3 года назад

Hey Ken - if you're not planning on keeping the rotor and just throwing it out, you can hit the braking surface of the rotor for max leverage. If you're keeping the rotors, you can hit the front of the hat of the rotor (not the braking surface) in a circular motion to try to loosen it!

@tuckerwallace4758 Год назад

Is there a sensor on both sides or is it just on one side of the car

@fcpeuro Год назад

Hi Tucker, it depends on the vehicle. Our brake kits include the needed sensors depending on the model you are searching for. In this case the rear uses on brake pad wear sensor.
