2001 E320 4matic
Brake Pad Question

I need to replace the pads on my 2001 E320 4matic, but there are so many pads and there are some with the 1 pin in the front and 1 0r 2 pin in the rear. I am unsure of which ones are compatible. Does anyone know?

you will need your vin number or production date located in the drivers door frame.Early had 2 pins later had 1
if you want nearly dust free pads and your rotors are mirror smooth order the akebono pads from tirerack.com give them the above info and you will get the correct pads.Otherwise just look at the caliper and count the pins
you can't turn the rotors (not enough material) so if they are not completely smooth replace them.
autohausaz.com has them also.
