Setup, Compatibility & Care
This pad set is specifically engineered for the front axle of the following vehicles: Mercedes-Benz A-Klasse (W176), B-Klasse (W246/W242), and CLA Coupe (C117).
Installation requires basic mechanical tools: a piston retraction tool, torque wrench, and high-temperature brake grease for contact points.
- Ensure the vehicle is properly lifted and secured on jack stands.
- Remove the caliper, clear out old debris from the carrier, and inspect the rotors for scoring.
- Apply brake grease to the anti-rattle clips and contact points (avoiding the friction surface).
- Install the FDB4428 pads and attach the wear indicator if your vehicle model uses one.
- Torque all bolts to the manufacturer's specification.
Regular care involves periodic inspection of the pad thickness during tire rotations to ensure they haven't worn below the minimum safety threshold.
