Seattle area - Have parts, need someone to do brakes on 2006 C230
I'm based in Seattle. I have a 2006 C230. I have the rotors and pads for the brakes to be replaced, but I don't have the know how. Is there anyone around who can help? Please PM if you can. I'd also like to get the stuff from an MB 40k service done. Trying to avoid stealership prices. Thanks!

It's not that easy to do it without a hoist. After DIYing it 2x in the past (with a jack stand and the factory jack), I'd rather pay someone $50 in labour to be honest.

I would recommend doing it yourself if you have the know how - its pretty dang easy honestly even w/ just a floor jack and some stands, but if you have to take it to a shop - id take it to mercedes garage in bellevue. Fair rates and great service. Talk to Adam.

honetly, the job is very easy to do print the instructions or have your laptop near. takes about 30 minutes to do the front and 20 to do the back. I am not sure if you can get it done for $50.00 bucks but good luck.

I can get mine done every day for $50 at my indy with my supplied parts. Rotors/Pads/Labor/Tax and all for my fronts was less than $350.
