Check "Brake Pad Wear" Message

Hello... So recently Check "Brake Pad Wear" message has popped up couple times.. My car has close to 47500 miles and its a 2014 C300..... I dont see any difference in braking nor do i hear the rotors grill noise..

I will be getting them inspected at an indy soon.. My question is if i need to change either the front or rear pads.. should i also change the rotors along with it ? Or if the rotors are fine.. Should i only change the pads..

Thanks in advance.

If the rotors are fine, just change the pads.

If the rotors are not badly grooved and within spec. and you have no pulsing of your brake pedal, I say don't change the rotors.

MB rotors are known to last a long time. I highly doubt they will need replacement. Just have the indy inspect the fronts and the rears and he will know which ones need changing. The front brakes always wear faster than the rear so I think you just need front ones.
