Purpose and Compatibility

The presented caliper has been designed for Mercedes C-Class W204 models, taking into account operation on the front left side of the vehicle. The mounting geometry, guide spacing, and caliper bracket design are adapted to the factory braking system, allowing for the preservation of original braking force parameters and vehicle stability.

When selecting a caliper for a specific engine and equipment version, it is always advisable to verify it based on the OEM part number and interchangeable numbers visible in the technical specification – this will help you avoid installation problems and ensure full compatibility with your car's braking system.

Construction and Technical Characteristics

The TRW brake caliper works with a disc of 295 mm diameter and 28 mm thickness, which is a typical solution for the front axle in many versions of the Mercedes C W204. This configuration provides adequate friction surface area and efficient heat dissipation from the system, which limits fading during intensive braking.

Key design features:

• dedicated placement on the vehicle – front, left side,
• design adapted for a 295x28 disc,
• solution consistent with the factory architecture of the Mercedes C W204 braking system.

By maintaining the original geometry, the caliper ensures correct pad guidance, even pad wear, and stable piston operation throughout its full stroke range.

Benefits of Using a Used TRW Caliper

Choosing a used brake caliper for a Mercedes C W204 is a solution that allows for optimizing service costs while maintaining the factory concept of the braking system. A properly selected component from this category:

• maintains the vehicle's original braking parameters,
• reduces the risk of compatibility issues typical of cheap aftermarket parts,
• allows for economical repair while maintaining a high level of safety.

Before installation, standard servicing is recommended – checking the condition of the guides, seals, working surfaces, and bleeding the system after installation. This approach ensures stable and predictable operation of the braking system in the long term.

Professional Selection and Technical Support

When selecting a caliper for a specific version of the Mercedes C W204, pay attention to the axle configuration, the type of discs used, and the markings in the vehicle's technical specification. If in doubt, it will be helpful to compare the construction of the old component with the offered caliper – especially regarding the mounting, the position of the brake hose fitting, and the shape of the caliper bracket.
