Detailed Description

MPA Electrical 1002-0740M brake pads are formulated for repeat-stop driving, towing, off-road use, and fleet service where durability matters. The semi-metallic compound is suited to higher operating temperatures, while the included shims and abutment clips support proper pad seating and quieter operation. This front disc brake pad set is a practical replacement choice for Mercedes-Benz CLK430, Mercedes-Benz CLK320, and E420 front brake service.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Addresses

• Squealing or brake noise from worn front pads
• Reduced stopping performance under heat and repeated braking
• Brake fade during towing or heavy-duty use
• Uneven pad wear caused by aged friction material
• Vibration or harshness during front brake application

Installation Notes and Tips

Inspect rotors, caliper hardware, and pad contact points before installation. Clean the caliper abutment areas, verify shim placement, and apply brake lubricant only where specified by the vehicle service procedure, since lubricant is not included. Confirm front-position fitment for your Mercedes-Benz CLK430, CLK320, or E420 before installation.
