“Stopping on a dime” may be a cliché, but it when it comes to keeping you safe in your vehicle, there are times that stopping just that quickly is necessary. One key component to your brake system is the Mercedes E55 brake pads. Your car uses forward energy to travel down the road, and it is your brake pads that use friction to change that into another kind of energy which allows you to stop.

There are several indicators that show up that could mean this crucial part needs to be replaced. You might have to pump your brakes to get them to engage, or it could be hard to push down on them.

You could possibly feel pulsing or vibrating as you step on the brake pedal, or you could hear a squealing noise from your brake sensor. To say that you didn’t know your brakes needed attention is saying that you haven’t been paying attention at all. If you want to be extra sure of the condition of your Mercedes E55 brake pads, you could do a visual test. To do this look from outside the wheel rim and see the thickness of the remaining brake pad. If there is ¼ of an inch, you will need to replace them soon. If there is 1/8 of an inch, immediate attention is required. That is not very much pad that is between you and the metal on metal grinding noise that means your rotors are being damaged.
