Brakes & suspension

Safety-critical work you can trust

Brakes, steering and suspension are the systems that keep you safe on the road. They deserve proper inspection, quality parts, and experienced fitment. At Benza Autos, Tony and the team carry out brake replacements, disc and pad work, caliper repairs, and full steering and suspension diagnostics for Mercedes-Benz vehicles.

We use genuine Mercedes parts or quality OE equivalent alternatives, and we'll always advise which is best for your car and budget. Every job starts with a thorough inspection. We show you what we've found, explain what's urgent and what can wait, and agree a fixed price before work begins.

From squealing pads and worn discs to knocking suspension, pulling steering and MOT failures, we handle the full range of chassis and braking work at our Birkenhead workshop, without sending you back to the main dealer.

Part of our Mercedes-Benz specialist work in Birkenhead — all models welcome.

Really glad I found this garage. Found it based on recommendations and they have not disappointed. I've been back twice and wouldn't go back to the main dealer again. Reasonably priced and the guys really know what they're doing.
