[W126 Coupe] Brake Squeal?

[Shayegan, Richard]

AFAIK you can't (or at least shouldn't) turn MB rotors. I'd tell you the
minimum thickness but somehow rotor and pad information never made it
into my service CDs.

Are two 70-0 the same as one 140-0? :-)

 

I have semi-metallic pads on the front of my SEC and SEL and both sets
are quiet. This is the first time I've used semi-metallics on the back
and they're very noisy. It might just be the rear rotors that are the
problem. 

 

Does anyone know the minimum thickness for rear rotors? I'd like to see
if I need new ones or just get these turned.

 

Later,

Mike R.
