Mercedes-Benz Brake Caliper Replacement in Denver

Mercedes-Benz vehicles are designed for safety and performance. But even the finest automobile depends on properly functioning brakes — and one of the most critical components of the brake system is the brake caliper. At MB Clinic in Denver we help Mercedes-Benz owners to keep their vehicles in top condition - including the braking system. We offer professional caliper inspections, repairs, and caliper replacements, if necessary. What Does a Brake Caliper Do? In simple terms, brake calipers are the “hands” that grip the brake rotors when you press the brake pedal. They hold the brake pads in place and apply force to increase friction between brake pads and rotors, and thus reduce vehicle speed or bring the vehicle to a complete stop. Over time, brake calipers may deteriorate and you may notice symptoms that will alert you that something is wrong: Vehicle pulling to one side when braking Uneven brake pad wear Leaking brake fluid near the wheels R ... read more

Mercedes-Benz Heater Core Problems

When your Mercedes fails to blow warm air on that cold night, chances are there is something wrong with the heater core or the other parts of the heating system.  Heater core looks like a small radiator, and that is exactly what it is. Hot coolant carrying heat from the engine cycles through the heater core, and when you turn on warm air, blower motor directs air over this radiator, causing the air  to warm up, and then through the vents it enters the cabin. When this system malfunctions, it is likely that either the blower motor is not doing its job (no air is coming out of the vents), or there is a problem with the heater core itself. Low coolant levels will negatively impact heating function, and they are often due to heater core leaks. Clogged heater core can also results in insufficient heat transfer, and so can a faulty heater valve. At MB Clinic we will diagnose the exact reason for the failure - there are many reasons why heating might not work, though heater core an ... read more

Mercedes-Benz Among Top 10 Brands with the Most Underinflated Tires

Firestone analyzed data from over 9 million cars serviced at its stores recently, and found that 45% of Mercedes-Benz vehicles had underinflated tires. On average, they needed to add 16 psi. Higher fuel costs are a direct result of underinflated tires, because they increase rolling resistance. Moreover, this can increase tire wear as well, resulting in in need of more frequent tire replacement. According to Firestone, all US drivers (not just Mercedes owners) overspend by almost $19 billion annually just on fuel alone. But this is only first part of bad news. Underinflated tires can also cause difficulties handling the vehicle, and can also increase the risk of blowouts. Winter driving with underinflated tires reduces road traction increasing probability of skidding and sliding. We are not aware of any study that would try to quantify these additional costs – both monetary, and health costs of potential accidents due to poor handling and tire blowouts. So to minimize the risk ... read more
