Hello! I have been enjoying my C43 since last September (except for the random squeak and rattle in the interior of the car - which my dealership fixed by putting lube on some stuff and replacing an a/c vent) the brakes have been squeaky lately when I apply them on low speed.


The dealership cleaned the wheels and the brakes for me and it went away, until a week or so later when I heard random (more minor compared to previously) squeals again.


Do you guys have the same problem? Is there a solution? I bought a can of brakes cleaning spray and spray it from time to time these days it seems to help - but I am not sure if that's a good solution.


It's also my first time having a car with large brakes so I do not know if they squeal more often than small brakes that are not perforated.


Thanks!

I've heard there is s a shim kit to remove this.

I have squealing brakes as on ~16k miles on the car. Not sure if I need new pads soon or I need the shim kit that I've been hearing about.

Same here, 2017 C43 sedan, with squeaky breaks in very low speeds since new, now about 5k miles. I recently removed the squeak by power breaking a couple of times, for a few days, squeak did not returned...

I've been told that would work coz it burns whatever sand and crap on the discs. I don't know where I can power brake though without someone crashing into me from the back

I use a large empty parking lot. works for me sir.

so drive to 100km/h and floor the brake?

my brakes have started squeaking lately, similar situation .. low speeds. I was wondering if the extreme cold weather might be a culprit.
8000 miles seems like an odd time to start squeaking

annoying
