MasterWhat brands of aftermarket brake pads did you use? We have had luck using Wagner Thermoquite. Use brake squeal grease sparingly. The brake rotors should have a non directional finish on them to avoid squeal. We use a brake hone see link bellow

Perhaps all your problems would be averted by using quality Mercedes brake pads. Its so frustrating having to do a job twice never mind three times.Flag ThisLike0
