Mercedes Benz C 43 AMG (202.033) V8-4.3L (113.944) Page 359
When performing repair or maintenance work on the brake system it is imperative that only the specified brake pad paste is used. Different models
and brake variants may use different types of brake paste (Figures 1-3). Please reference any corresponding LIs, DTBs and or WIS document
AR42.10-P-0161-01B for paste type and application location. Do not apply too much paste, only a light coating of brake paste is required when
instructed.
Warning!
Under no circumstances should aftermarket brake paste or anti-squeal type chemicals be used on brake components. These chemicals are not
approved by Mercedes-Benz, and their affect on brake components is unknown.
Warning!
Never apply brake paste or any other chemicals to the brake pad friction surfaces.
Note:
Failure to follow guidelines for proper brake paste usage may result in brake noise issues.
