Brake Dust
I am noticing quite a buildup of brake dust on my S450 wheels, front and back. I had almost none of that on my previous 2015 C300.
I realize this car is a lot heaver but I am surprised at the difference. I am wondering if this is an indication of reduced brake life.
I hope not!

Almost all of my Porsches had very little brake dust compared to the 550's, my 17 AudiQ7 literally has almost none, but my 550's exhibited heavy dust (hate this stuff).
