Thanks for respond.
So, did you just changed calipers(including rotors and pad)? still using your master cylinder?
You need to change rotors and pads ofcourse. I have part numbers for everything. Dealer didn't say anything about changing the master cylinder. So you should be fine.

Thanks and it is good news for me.
May i asking about the part number or anything you have any information?
Different issue and couple of questions:
I have Non-OEM brake pads and rotors as per mentioned by dealer (attached image). According to them, that is the cause of some metal clanking noise when going over speed bumps (after they replaced sway bar links). Now, the brake are fine as of now, but if I have to upgrade to them, I prefer to go over this route.
Dealer quoted 660$ for new MB brake pads, MB rotors. But I was thinking of buying off calipers from E550 (ebay or here from forum members) and get NEW brake pads (MB or Brembo - whichever is cheaper) and rotors.
1. I believe a sticky with compatible part numbers for front and rear: brake pads, rotors and calipers would be great. Those car gurus - please help with that
2. Do we need to worry about rear upgrade also?
3. Will 17" OEM wheels cause any trouble for 4-piston brembo brake set from E550 on my E350?
Thanks.
Apologize for the enlarged image size.

I believe you need 18” rims to clear the much larger rotors and calipers. The E550’s got 360mm rotors vs 340mm plus larger calipers. Get aftermarket rotors as the OE rotors are famous for warping. They are also much cheaper than stock. Win - win.

I have the same concern, to upgrade my breaks. Did you verify if the new 4pistons callipers fit to in 17" wheels?
