Brake Dust Fix

Here check out THESE LINKS: https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...ike-crazy.html & https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-c...250-coupe.html

The majority consensus is.... Switch out your pads for AKEBONO/EURO Ultra-Premium Brake Pads... It's clear that even MB is playing around with different pads and materials to solve this complaint.




Akebono EURO Ultra-Premium Brake Pads Link: http://www.akebonobrakes.com/afterma...uro/index.html

EURO Ultra-Premium brake pads provide the ideal vehicle control and response performance intended by the manufacturers of European makes.

The Akebono EURO Ultra-Premium brake pad line addresses performance specific requirements of European makes, providing vehicle control and response as the vehicle manufacturer had intended. These brake pads are formulated and fit with a precision that is remarkable sensitive to every application. This provides superb function and rotor compatibility, resulting in longer rotor life.

The use of highly advanced ceramic brake pad technology allows Akebono’s “EURO” pad line to provide excellent stopping power while extending rotor life and virtually eliminating brake dust.

Increased stopping power in critical braking situations
Improved pad wear performance over conventional disc pads

Very very slow
Anyone tried them yet?

Did you try these pads yourself, MBRedux?

I've tried to look for these but can't seem to find anywhere in Canada.

Anyone else have such luck?
