I can hear some kind of noise, it sounds like something is scraching something, sounds like metal


I know my brakes are bad and they need replacing but can they be that bad

a metal sound when braking is never a good thing... if you pro-long replacing ur pads, youll need new rotors, if you already dont.

That is the sound of your wallet getting lighter. Wait long enough, and you'll be replacing the calipers in addition to the rotors.

You should know better than that. Mercedes uses sealed muffler bearings, you have to replace them.

small question and dont mean to hijack the thread, but what about the noise after you installed new disks, and callipers, and there is screeching when u break, or squeaking usualy at a certain point in the break (not when u press gently) ....

have a look through your wheels.. if you see grind marks on your discs.. then you have worn the brake pads tot he backing plate! time for pads and rotors.

It is probably just the wear indicator on your brake pads, change them!

The caliper may be sticking causing just one rotor to be damaged.
