Although is life's time warranty. But C&C is being kind despite the ride is from PI. Just curious, no need to pay for any adoption fees or whatsoever?

Last time they charged me $700 + for Oil and labor cost, it failed again within few months, C&C didn't charge me any amount for the second time replacement. Mine was also from PI.

Seems to have no standard pretices? Depending on the service adviser?

Just wonder what is the symptom of failing SBC.

My W211 SBH function seem to be not activating 70% of the time when I try to depress the brake pedal at red traffic light.

Sympton of failing SBC brake is when you step on the brake during normal driving, u experience weak braking power even when u step all the way down

At traffic light, SBC brake hold is a technique u need to learn thru many practice. Do a quick jerk and step down fast on the brake. If it doesn't work, release the brake again and repeat the quick jerk.

Sorry for using this tread again.

I lost my brake completely some 3 weeks ago. The red warning from the displace said that I must switch off and restart engine. The brake backed to normal after I restarted the engine.

I sent my ride to C&C and they replaced the brake switch.

Same happen again today. Both incidents happen when I was driving down slope in under ground.

Looks like C&C did not solve the problem. Any suggestion from brothers here?

Thanks.
