I'm getting ready to put new pads and rotors on the E. Anything special about Mercedes that would make this job more difficult than on any other car? Any surprises about getting the rotors off?
Thanks in advance.

 

Ive done it before on the wifes 99e320 i reused the rotors on the front which my mechanic(Works at the sealer) recommended against. I also used the basic pads...I noticed that my mechanic's prediction came true. the aftermarket pads require more braking pressure than originals. its ok though, as long as it buys me some time till i replace the rotors and pads as a set..then ill go with originals.
on the back, the rotors tend to stick- I had to replace both. overalll normal

Thanks for the reply. In casr you are interested I'm going to use Hawk SPS street performance pads and ATE sprial grooved rotors. I have had very good performance with this combo on my vette.
