hi guyz，new to here.just bought my 2014 e63 non s month ago.

till now im so happy with amg.

here are some question for my first service，i went to the local dealer for A service，and just done the engine oil changed ，its too rip off！

so i decide to buy parts from somewhere and find a workshop to do it with reasonable price.

the pads i bought for front and rear is different brand，there are icer brake and textar.

are they any good？

and i bought the air cleaner element also the cabin air filter they are from hengst.

my question is those oem parts are the same from Mercedes dealship？or its always the myth we will never found out？

thanks for reading and sorry for my english.

Not sure what icer pads are buts texture are ok but a little hard, the texture e-pads are way better

filters are oem

i know the rotors are probably expensive but I would replace them as well when you do the pads, look for Zimmerman rotors

thank you Mhoughland，so if the pads last 2 years just for normal drive in town，rotor need to replace as well？

Not necessarily need to, but the brakes just work better when pads and rotors are replaced together. No chance of Noise or vibration that way

however I have seen people just put the pads on and be happy with them.

I just like to replace rotors and pads together and be done with it for a few years, no problems

thats just me though

Textar ok, Hengst ok, Icer, well, I don't even know what that is.

lol me too

its made from Spain，never hear of it！hope its good

Looks like a Napa box.

I would send them back and get some good brake pads. It is an e63. I like the oem pads but they cost a lot and dust like crazy or akebono. Also don’t forget to get the sensors

I have tried different cabin filters and the only one that fits correctly is the OEM.

thanks sugar！

so hengst filter is the oem one？

u cant even fit it into the right place if not oem filter？

thanks

i did some research and it said icer is a big company for making pad brake etc，but dont have any review from user tho，anyway，i will try and post the review，if its not good i will change it after few kms.

thanks agian mhoughland！

You want this one.

Hengst will fit but very poorly. It is shaped differently and uses different construction to seal. It also does not use the upper pins correctly. I tried Hengst and Bosch and both were no good. I then went Mercedes and was good to go. It's only about $3 more.

thanks for the info sugar！

where can i order the parts of Mercedes？the dealer here charge me 1700 for replace the pad rear and front！

I bought mine for $35 shipped but just went back to check if its available and it is not. I bought mine on Amazon. A quick search shows closer to $50 shipped. You can try your filter and see if it installs well. The biggest issue is the filter will not seat well and the ends bulge out even after the white clamp is in place.

You can try this but is interestingly half the price of others.

thanks buddy！i will try next time when it need to replace.

lol just take the old ones out and its the same

help，during the replacement，two screw dorp .is ok just drive and it will pop out to the road or it will end up to broke some parts in the bonnet？

Depends where they dropped and what screws were they?

I’m guessing the t25 screws in airbox. You are probably good as long as they didn’t drop down into charge pipes.

next time just back them out halfway not all the way

t25 i think to the Botton of ｅｇｉｎｅ bay

u r right！but it went to Botton of the egine bay

It’s probably sitting on one of the covers below
