Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG Brake Pad Replacement

When should you change the brake pads on your 2016 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG? It largely depends on where and how you drive. In general, brake pads last from 30,000 to 40,000 miles. Certain factors, like driving mostly on highways and braking smoothly, can help your brake pads last longer. Hauling heavy loads and riding your brakes can shorten brake pad lifespan. Your brake pad replacement timeline also depends on the type of brake pads you have installed on your SLK55 AMG. Not all brake pads are created equally. Some materials last longer.

Questions About Your Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG Brakes

  • Why is my SLK55 AMG shaking as I brake? Your SLK55 AMG could shake when you brake due to worn brake pads or rotors, warped rotors, loose or worn suspension components, or faulty brake calipers. You can always schedule a free brake inspection at the first sign of strange brake behavior.
  • What is the total number of brake pads on my SLK55 AMG? It’s common for vehicles to have four brake pads per axle — two on each front wheel and two on each back wheel. Since the front wheels tend to put in more work when bringing your SLK55 AMG to a stop, the front brake pads usually wear out sooner than the rear ones.
  • How long can I expect my SLK55 AMG brake pads to last? In general, brake pads can last from 30,000 to 40,000 miles. Certain factors, like driving on highways mostly and braking smoothly, can help your brake pads last longer. Hauling heavy loads and riding your brakes can shorten brake pad lifespan.
  • Is it bad if my SLK55 AMG is leaking brake fluid when off? Because your SLK55 AMG brake system is a closed hydraulic system, it should not leak brake fluid. However, if components in your brake system have worn out or been damaged, it might cause brake fluid to leak.
