The terms "backyard mechanic" and "eye-ball engineering" belong in the last century, not in this one. Today's technicians' toolboxes must have more than wrenches and impact drivers. Laptop computers are now part of any trained technician's tool collection, as are electronic diagnostic units that look like they belong in the ER section of a hospital. Our factory trained and ASE certified technicians will work on your Mercedes like it's their own. (Believe me that's a good thing)

This moisture content can lead to the formation of vapor under hard braking conditions, reducing the system's efficiency. Mercedes-Benz recommends replacing brake fluid every two years.
