Brakes Squeal Really Loudly
I own a 2015 W212 E-Class, and recently replaced both the discs and pads. I bought the best parts I could find here in the UK, Brembo parts. After having a shop replace the noises made were really loud, to the point that a guy covered his ears after hearing them at a zebra crossing in shock. I need to get this issue sorted out, as it is so odd. I went to the shop again, and he thoroughly inspected both discs and pads and cleaned the discs. He said that he doesn't know why. Please help someone.

Uh, I don't know. I don't think so? Does this matter? As far as I am aware, this wouldn't be an issue. Especially as I bough the pasmds and discs from the same manufacturer Brembo.

Yes you may have needed to bed these specific pads with the discs. It’s a series of controlled stops and cool down to properly transfer material from the pad to the disc for proper grip and wear.

My experience with MB OEM pads is they are manufactured by Akebono and stamped as such. If you used a high performance pad with your new high performance Brembo setup it may need to be bedded as I suggested. Your mechanic knows how to do this and should have done it if that is required. Maybe call someone at Brembo and get their recommendations. Backing plates, proper lubricant on the back side of the pad can all cause noise.
