On another post I wrote about ML Dunlop tire problems. On this post, I am wondering about the brake pads. My friend with the 2002 ML320 is going on his THIRD set of brake pads at 15,000 miles. While he does admit to driving almost all city (Pittsburgh hills) up-and-down driving, is it normal for the Benz Truck to go thru brake pads every 7500 miles? I owned Benzes for years but never the truck. Generally my "S" Class cars (S320...1999 then 1993 before that) went thru pads every 12,000 miles or so. Shouldn't the truck get at least that many miles on front pads?
