Do 2007 E350 Brake pads fit a 2003 E320?
I have been told that the brake pads used in the 2007 E350 generate much less brake dust than the brake pads used in the earlier models. Assuming that is true, do the brake pads from a 2007 E-class fit a 2003 E-class?

JK,
Sorry, I don't have an answer to your question, but when I replaced the rear pads in my 03 E320, I went with Porterfield. There's hardly any dust on my rear wheels now (they used to have the same amount of dust as the fronts).
If you decide to go this route, tell Porterfield you want the sensor holes drilled in the pads.

I agree with Paul. You can find an alternative made for your model that a) probably costs less b) potentially dusts less.
There are great aftermarket cermaic pads out there today.

Why wouldn't you assume that if MB has discovered new pad material it wouldn't be available for older cars, too?
For $20 a year you can subscribe to EPC and look up part numbers yourself. So if you want EXACT SAME pads from E350, you can compare part numbers.
