On Friday, my wife told me her Mercedes was "making a funny noise when she puts on the brakes". Upon close inspection, I determined that the driver's side front outboard brake pad was worn to practically nothing. FWIW, the rears still seem fine. So on Saturday, I replaced the front brake pads. I fully expected the job to be overly complex, but was pleasantly surprised. That was the easiest brake job I've ever done, hands down. Kudos to the Mercedes engineers for not over-complicating things.
The only down side....The Duralast Gold Ceramic pads from AutoZone were $65, for front pads only. That surprised me. At least they have a lifetime warranty, in case I ever need to replace them again.
