Anyone know if there are any pitfalls in replacing fr. and or Rr. pads on this . I don't usually get involved in such beasts, but have said I will look at it as it is a new customer following a recommondation. Forwarned is forarmed,n'est pas ? Cheers.

Merc front pads are dead easy but back ones may need a special piston retracting tool. Be careful to replace correctly the pad wear indicator sensor. Make sure servo is exhausted (pump brake pedal several times with engine off) as pistons can sometimes move of their own accord when the caliper is swung away from the disc.
