Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rotor condition, caliper operation, and pad fitment before installation. This set is prepared for an electronic wear sensor, but no pad wear sensor is included, and mounting hardware is not included. For listed Mercedes-Benz front applications, confirm the required sensor part number 341-63004 if your vehicle uses a wear indicator system. Clean the caliper bracket and pad contact points before assembly to help maintain even pad movement and consistent braking.
