I had my E350 serviced (B Service) in Jan (30,000 miles) and informed that I had about 20% left on the front brakes, in Mar 2,000 miles later the watrninging light came on so I arranged for pad replacement at the dealer.
I had a loo and felt the edges of the discs and thought I would measure them with a micronmeter, 30.04mm I understand the wear limit is 30mm
I was surprised that the dealer did not tell me that the discs were wearing down when I had the car servied in Jan. On asking I was told that "they only give the discs a visual on the B service, and would only measure them when changing pads"
I find it hard to belive, am I wrong in this, or are they blowing me smoke?
