Recently, I set out with the goal to provide our customers with all the resources they would need to troubleshoot and repair the brake systems on their own cars. As your favorite Benz ages brake problems will arise and they can sometimes be difficult to diagnose. Since brakes are a safety related system it is also VERY important that any repair work be done properly and with great care.
To meet this goal I knew I would have to produce clearly written and easily understood instruction manuals, provide special tools and equipment to make brake service easier, and offer the highest quality brake parts at affordable prices. With the launch of my new BRAKE SYSTEMS manual I believe these goals has been met. Good brakes have “saved my bacon” numerous times both in airplanes and cars. Even my three kids who have all driven Mercedes can recount one or more times where the combination of Mercedes handing and braking has kept them out of an accident. I cannot stress enough the importance of maintaining your brake system to factory new condition. Please follow the links below that will direct you to these new resources.
