R231 2013 SL63 brake pad/rotor TSB
Took my SL63 in for squeaky brakes. Turns out there's a TSB out for the R231 brake pads and rotors. They've had to change the material composition of them for some reason or another. Anyway, free set of pads and rotors for me. If you have a 2013 SL63 you might want to inquire with your dealer.

Thanks for the headsup. My brakes squeak like Pep Boys $12.00 Raybestos Red Box pads.
