Hi,
Just wondering if anyone might have a detailed description of how to change the pads on a 2015 GL350 ?

Thanks

 

Hi,
you are posting in the wrong forum. You would want to re post this in x166 forum for more members to chime in. Here is a link to the write up I did on the front pads and rotors

I'm guessing, just like any other MB.

 

There's literally hundreds of videos out there in netland about changing pads. There's nothing really special about doing it on your car. I'll be honest - if you can't figure it out by looking at it or from the videos out there, you probably shouldn't be doing it. DIY is great, but you also need to know your limitations. Especially with a part of the car that keeps you from having an accident and hurting someone.

Can you jack up the car securely? Do you have a torque wrench for the lug bolts?

But... in no particular order, but the general idea is:
-- Disconnect the brake pad sensor if applicable.
-- Remove the caliper slide pins.
-- Firmly rock the caliper back and forth to squeeze the pistons and allow the caliper to slide off.
-- Secure the caliper.
-- Remove the pads.
-- Compress the pistons more - take the extra step of opening the bleeder while doing this, if you want. Don't let air in.
-- Clean things up.
-- Replace using good hi-temp brake grease on contact points.
