#1820 of 2060 Break Lining wear by s430amg Jun 29, 2006 (8:53 pm)
I have a 2002 S430 AMG and I just received a message that the brake lining is wearing visit shop -   A couple of questions -   Is it recomended that I take it to the Mercedes Benz shop to get replacement pads or can I go to a shop that specializes in foreign cars?   Does the AMG make a difference when replacing brakes?   Will the signal go off if I take it somewhere other than Mercedes?   The Mercedes shop quoted $250 while other shops are in the $150 range - is that right?   If I take it to somewhere other than Mercedes what should I ask the shop -   please respond jkp4030yahoo.com   Also I was planning on going out of town MD- NY and Mercedes can't get me in before, would it be okay to drive and get fixed upon return? Light came on two days ago.   Thanks!!!!!!   Jacqueline

Replying to: anthonyp (Apr 22, 2006 1:41 pm) Sorry for the neglect of this thread, I didn't have it on my tracking list.   Well it was Chrysler and Daimler-Benz that merged back in 1998. I at the time needed medical attention upon reading about it, but have since recovered.   M

Replying to: blkhemi (May 07, 2006 8:07 pm) Good to see you've posted here also.   I assume the more recent decision to get the Audi S8 means all of this has been decided already???   M

Replying to: blckislandguy (May 23, 2006 6:52 pm) Well there is no data on the new S-Class so far as reliability is concerned, but if you look around on some other MB mesg boards you'll find a shocking lack of complaints about the car. I have the feeling that the new S is the most reliable Benz in at least the last 10-12 years. I doubt you'll be able to get 4Matic for free considering how the S550 will still seemingly be the only car besides the A8 to offer AWD in this segment. I don't think you have anything to worry about with the new S.   M
#1824 of 2060 Infra-red reflecting windshield and laminated front passenger windows by cardwan Jul 02, 2006 (7:36 am)
Any idea the difference in the heat reduction using the above option? Worth the money to buy this option if this is not a standard in the MB car? I suppose that the laminated glass should be more safe and more sound-proof.   Any comment?
#1825 of 2060 4matic with 18" wheels in snow. by djt21 Aug 14, 2006 (6:15 pm)
I have an S500 4matic with stock 17" wheels. The car had great traction last winter with the stock 17's and Michelin MXV4 all seasons. For aesthetic reasons I want to go up to an 18" wheel. Will I get as good or similar snow traction with an 18" wheel and all season tire as I am now with the factory 17" setup. I'll typically be driving through 4-5 inches of snow per storm. (I'm not willing to do the winter/summer changeover every 6 months).

Maybe someone would be kind enough to give their impression of the new S Thanks Tony
