Chassis range question

Hey all I am looking at brake pads and I have ran across a little problem. The website is asking me for a chassis range I have two numbers to chose from. 864307 or 864308. How do I know what my car is? 1995 E 320 sedan.


Thanks
Brian Felts

Look at the last 6 digits of your VIN.

The last four digits are 220191 I am not doing a good job at understanding this. I used Advanced Auto parts pads on it and they SUCK but they didn't need such a number as the 864307 or 864308.


Thanks for helping.........I need it!

This is how it works:

The MBZ changed the brake pad after the car with VIN B864307. Look at the last 7 charachters of your VIN, if it is A or B220191, then you need the part B864307. If your VIN is C220191 or any other letter after it, that means your car was manufactured after the change was made.

What kind of pads are putting in? I reccomend "Green Stuff" from the TireRack. they are more expencive, but noticably cleaner, less dusty.
