Jack points
What's up guys, anyone put a w213 on 4 jack stands yet? I'm looking to take all 4 wheels off at the same time so I can ceramic coat the calipers. The manual does no good as it only shows how to use the normal jack points to get one side up. Any help or pictures is much appreciated.

As I understand it, there isn't a central point in the rear from which to jack it. I've read that some folks have raised it up by the rear diff, but that's supposedly not recommended on the w213. I don't know enough myself, so I'll be interested in the other replies you get here.

The best way to do this is with Quickjacks. Certainly not the cheapest way but it's the safest way. I use them for swapping over to winter tires and they'll come in handy for maintenance eventually. I got the BL-7000EXT.

I was the last one to post on that thread @6G Schnell mentioned. I too was looking for a way to get the whole rear up on jack stands, but in order to do that, you need a center jack point to get the rear up in the air so you can then use the side jack points for the stands. Normally I would jack the rear by the rear diff, but the heatsink-looking shape of the rear diff cover on the W213 seems a bit fragile and not likely a good idea.
Edit: Also, all the suggestions on that thread refer to the W212.

After they were mentioned in the other thread, I went ahead and ordered a pair of safejacks. They should be arriving today. If they work as advertised, they seem like the perfect solution.

I ordered 2 jack stands, 2 MB jack pads, 2 pinch weld pads (for my VW), and 2 flat jack pads (just in case the other ones don't fit as advertised).
