Does the step perform any function like lock onto the pad? If no, wont make
the any difference which angle the piston is facing.

Never heard of such thing on MB... you are fine... rebuilt calipers or new
are ready to mount with no further actions necessary.

I have had a squeaky binding rear brake on my 123 280e. I just had both
back wheels off. On one of them there was a lot of loose black dust and
one brake pad was much more worn than the other on the same caliper. Is
this pad`s piston likely to be the culprit?

Last "Cars" Post on Wordpress: Title: Custom Mercedes in Black Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2009 12:56:27 +0000 Author: orcatek
This week I faced the fun challenge of photographing a black custom Mercedes in my studio. As with all black cars, dealing with the many reflections was key to success.

It is always worth the effort as I really enjoy photographing cars. From classic hotrods to amazing exotic cars, each presents their own set of challenges for the photographer. Finding the perfect angles to show off the curves of a fender, or just the right type light to bring out details hidden in shadows are just a few of the problems I enjoy solving.
I’ve got another great car coming into the studio soon that will provide the opportunity to use some new techniques.
