Brake Pads — Mercedes-Benz Malaysia
Mercedes-Benz vehicles use electronic brake pad wear sensors — the dashboard displays a warning when pads reach minimum thickness. Do not ignore this warning in Malaysian conditions: extended stop-start city driving wears pads faster than in cooler climates. Front pads cost RM 200–450 (OEM or equivalent quality); Brembo or Ferodo performance pads are RM 300–600 and offer better fade resistance. Mercedes-specific pads include dust sensors — use proper MB-compatible sensors to avoid false warnings. Always replace in axle pairs.
