MB brakes = FedEx truck

Today I am driving next to a FedEx truck with my sunroof and window open. I don't know who was squeeking louder me or him... regardless, it was freaking LOUD from both vehicles. It's a good thing that those FedEx trucks have performance MB brakes.

So I Guess You have NOT Heard The SLR Brakes?

They Squeak So bad Mb has a TSB to try and quiet them down...

But Most all Composit brakes make noise

Btw Do You have the 030 Brakes?


Take it in and have the MB Dealer apply the MB anti squeak to the backside of the brake pads..they May even replace the pads ...If its under 12k one year...If you need a decent tech at MB south bay pm me

No 030, just standard CLS63 brakes
