Service Reset for Brakes
Just completed new Front and Rear brakes on my 2017 GLE 43. Followed procedures for the rear Electronic parking brake movement and reset it it back.
Is there a place to reset the service reminder for front and rear pads? I get into the service menu (with the phone/OK button push) but can not find a place for pad service... Is there one?
on my BMW we can reset front and rear pad service with intervals and starts the mileage countdown, etc. Anything like this on MB? I do not want to resert the total service ( ready for A9 service in a few months)
Thanks

Brake pads do have wear sensors on them and resetting the intervals is not possible as 1 can wear the pads on 10,000 miles, when I've been getting over 100k miles on them for years.
Once the pad lights come on, no need to panic. The sensor is mounted about 3 mm from the metal, so you can easy drive couple thousands miles before it become crucial.
But beware that car has only 2-3 of sensors for 8 pads and sometimes they don't wear evenly, so checking them during other service is highly advised.
