Hi does any one know where I can get a brake caliper seal kit, I've got a good set of calipers but the seals are gone. Thanks Ross

Hi,
Have you tried Mercedes themselves?

Some time back (on a Jaguar) I was told that they had been banned from sale due to 'elf'n safety', and only refurb units were available.
I got the refurbs and then found seals available from a specialist dealer.
Try Google, and see what turns up.
George.

Thanks for all you advice, I think I will have to get reconditioned ones. Regards Ross

You can still get caliper refurbishment kits from a Mercedes dealer within 2/3 days. Give the parts person the VIN and you will get the correct ones for your car.

Thanks all I have found a company that sells reconditioned calipers for 40.00 each, plus vat. Not much more than a rebuild kit. So I'll have some new ones to fit on Monday.
