Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Merc hybrid Brakes shudder at stop..

sticker · 2022-11-09 06:12:17

Hi all. i just bought a 2015 Merc C300h (hybrid). The Brakes are a real let down though. I was told by the garage that the hybrid system charges the battery when braking and as a result the Brakes can shudder quite a bit when coming to a complete stop. Any ideas and more importantly a recommendation of a non cowboy garage…

Any ideas and more importantly a recommendation of a non cowboy garage in Dublin that would be a specialist in hybrid brake systems?
Thanks in advance...

Ask any back street garage to test drive it. If breaking very hard abs can make brakes shudder. If a disc is warped then you also get a shudder and disc needs replacing. All fairly normal for any garage.
