2020 Metris Cargo Van Brake Job
I'm having trouble finding the torque values for front and rear brakes plus rotor replacement on a 2020 Metris Cargo Van. Also, should I replace the caliper slide pins and boots or just lubricate them?

The torque value for brakes is "good and tight" ...until MB start using aluminum nuts bolts like on the engine block.

Lubricate the caliper sliding pins with "high temperature SILICONE BRAKE GREASE" and specifically NOT the junk "synthetic caliper grease" that dries into a glue (good for piston to pad surface).

This step will make your brakes strong, responsive and smooth unlike when the dry pins have evaporated the factory lubricant after 10kMi.
