Did you do replace all 4 brakes and rotors or just the front?
Does the problem only happen when applying brakes?
I'm curious to see if it's something else too...
Inquiring minds want to know.

Wheel Bearings?
Control Arms?
Tire Rods?
Sway Bar Bushings?
A quick way to check those is to jack the car up in the front and try to move the wheel from side to side to see if there is any play....then try to move it back and forth...up and down.(holding the top of the tire and bottom of the tire and pushing and pulling)..if there is any play or wiggling, it most likely will be suspension issues...with the sway bar you just have to grab it and try to move it to see if the links are loose..do this on both sides.
I just got my C230 2 days ago, so I haven't had a chance to dive in and trouble shoot yet... but if you already replaced what I would think would be the obvious culprit(brakes and rotors) then most likely it may be suspension related or more rarely tire related...
Let us know what you find out.
PS>>>CAN I HAVE YOUR OLD ROTORS AND BRAKES

Other things to check is your master cylinder or your ABS is acting up...
Any check engine lights?
