A brake service includes a visual inspection, pad measurement, rotor thickness measurement, hardware review/renewal, brake fluid check, caliper slide cleaning/lubrication, and a road test.
On a 2015 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class, our technicians document pad thickness and compare rotor readings to the minimum spec to determine if pads-only or pads-and-rotors are appropriate per axle. OEM-spec pads are selected to preserve pedal feel and low noise. We complete a final road test to validate performance.

- OEM-spec pads and hardware kit when required.
- Final road test to confirm feel and stopping performance.
Should I replace brake pads and rotors at the same time on a 2015 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class?
Replace both only if rotors are at/below minimum thickness or show heat spots, grooves, or runout; otherwise pads-only may be appropriate.

If rotors are worn or overheated, replacing them with the pads helps ensure proper bedding, quiet operation, and even braking.
