Brake Pad recommendation please....
Hi, all
I have decided to dig in myself on changing front brake pad of my ML320 and I need some advise.
First, it seems it is faily a simple process from what I read from here. Take the tire off, use 13mm socket to remove brake shoe and replace pad and sensor and reverse the step to put back on, right?[sm=insomnia.gif]
Secondly,which brake pad to use? I see so many options on eBay and it confuses me more, ceramic, metallic, etc. Also, does sensor come with brake pad or is that something I have to buy seperately? Can anyone recommend me a brand or which to use?
Thanks in advance.

the brake pads are different from each side so compare the new to the old ones before installing them. they might be labled with an L or R. usually the sensor is sold seperate. if the pads are incorrectly installedthe caliper wont go on correctly.
