welcome to the forum.

2002 C230k coupe you can do wheels, add-on bodykits, lowering springs, exhausts for exterior, and DVD indash if you are into that.

as far as the brake noise it's most likely it's just temperary. If you just changed it there might be tiny rocks stuck between pads and rotors OR it can be the weather sometimes during cold weather my brakes would screech. How long ago did you change the brakes?

i had the same problem with my car. at first i thought it was the brakes but after they replaced it i heard the noise come back the following day. did you have both rear and front brakes replaced?

mine ended up being the rear brakes, now all is fine.

good luck with that.
