Just had front and rear rotors and pads changed on our CLC200 at a Mercedes dealer. The front pads look new with about 15mm on them, however, the rear pads look to have about half that. Is this normal or have they forgotten to replace rear pads?

GO TO A LOCAL PARTS STORE

HAVE THEM PULL THE PADS IN QUESTION AND SEE WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE!

YOU CAN ALSO LOOK AT THE BOLTS THAT HOLD THE CALIPERS ON, SEE IF THERE ARE FRESH TOOL MARKS ON THEM, LOOK AT THE METAL BACKINGS OF THE AROUND THE PADS FOR ANCIENT STUCK ON DIRT OR CORROSION.
