    Someone had told me on the rear calipers you had to electronically depress the caliper piston. Since you put the brake system in service mode in the beginning does that mean I can manually depress the caliper piston ?

      Hi, if you Watch the video completely you will see that I do move the Caliper Pistons manually after retracting the Parking Braking pistons to Zero Position first in the cluster. The service Mode is only for retracting the Parking Brake Actuators so you can do this service. There's no point to ask these questions before you watch my video because simply this a waste of time and space if you are not going to watch my video... I made this video to help you and guide you through the steps of how to do this job easily with no issues! So again watch my video and then if you have questions, Go ahead and ask me so I can try to see if I can help you more... Thanks and Good Luck! 🤞💪👍

    What are the torque specs to put mount the caliper to the suspension? How about the pad carrier to the rotor caliper?

      Hi this is from Mercedes - Brake wear sensor 8Nm. Guide pin to brake caliper support and Bolt to Brake caliper 35Nm. Actuator motor to brake caliper 12Nm. Brake Caliper Support to Wheel Carrier 130Nm. Let me know if you need more help. Thanks!

      Tight, use blue thread locker.
      On micro threaded caliper bolts some shops replace those bolts each time.

    How do you know which break pad needs changing?

    • @projectathos
      @projectathos  Год назад +1

      You will get a Brake light message on your Dash and then you need to do a visual inspection on the front and rear Brake Pads to see which one is worn out. Usually though I always change all the brakes Front and Rear alltogether even if the rear have a little more left just because I want to make sure the car is perfect and the brakes operate properly. It's up to you but that is what I do and recommend to customers... Safety before everything else! Thanks 👍

      is it metric 17mm?

    • @projectathos
      @projectathos  Год назад

      17 mm means millimeter so last time I checked a millimeter is part of the Metric system. You can find these online or at stores where they sell tools... Thanks

    I hate when goobers top off brake fluid when the pads get low.
    If you don’t tip off the fluid you can compress the calipers and not have your fluid leak out.
    Of course I pump up each perspective brake Caliper after I replace the brake pads.
    I just check the level each time to see if I need to suck out any fluid.
    You
    Don’t need to take the cap off to compress the calipers on Mercedes.
    Never had to on any Mercedes.

    which do you use, silicone or coper based grease ?

    • @projectathos
      @projectathos  Год назад

      Copper should be fine. I have also used another one from Textar that comes with some brake kits. Try to avoid silicone as I have found out that silicone doesn't change with temperature fluctuations and tends to create problems because of that...
