Brake Pads and Rotors
I have a 2013 S550 W221. During my recent service, it was recommended that I replace the front and rear brake pads and the front rotors. MB was charging an arm and a leg. I found a local shop that can do the job. How do I ensure that he replace it with quality parts? Any recommendations for quality pads and front rotors? Do I purchase the parts and just pay for the labor? I will hate to end up with some inferior pads and rotors. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Brembo, Pagid, Jurid, Textar, Ferodo, ATE, Zimmerman. Theyre all really interchangeable and I have used every single one of these weekly for the last 3 years. I'm partial to Brembo and Pagid.
You can find all this stuff on RockAuto. I do like the Powerstop Eurostop of brakes which is reboxed European OEM stuff.
The Brembo NAO ceramic + the rotors are great. Use pagid sensors, honestly the brand of sensor isn't that important. Rockauto is a great place to buy parts.
