Mercedes‑Benz Loaded Roller Brake Testing

BETTER PRACTICE. BETTER PROTECTION.

Loaded roller brake testing is now a standard feature of an enhanced Mercedes Service.

Contracts that were introduced on 1 July 2021. The test is now carried out during every Safety Inspection, wherever possible, for total peace of mind*.

Benefits of a loaded roller brake test include:

  • Braking system tested to the operational performance level
  • Load sensing functionality tested
  • Braking components stress tested
*Due to basic design limitations, or restrictions caused by the type of cargo in the vehicle there may be some instances when a laden test would not be possible, as identified in the DVSA “Heavy vehicle brake test: best practice”

BEST PRACTICE. AS STANDARD.

Loaded roller brake testing (as standard in our Service Contracts) is in line with the recommendations included within the DVSA Guide to Maintaining Roadworthiness. The DVSA advise that meaningful loaded roller brake tests are conducted at every Safety Inspection.

Trust Mercedes-Benz to deliver optimum safety standards.

What do our customers say

"If ever I need them... they’ll always bend over backwards"

Flexible, customer-focused aftersales back-up is, therefore, more crucial than ever to the smooth running of our business. I’ve built up a very good relationship with General After Sales Manager Gareth Williams and his team at eStar Stoke, and know that if ever I need them to juggle things around they’ll always bend over backwards to accommodate us.

The service provided by the Dealer’s Truck Sales Consultant was also first-class. He’s a great guy and clearly understands what we need from a chassis.

"I’ve been really impressed with everything I’ve seen so far of the Dealer"

We’re an environmentally conscious business so I’m hoping that this is just the start of an ongoing relationship with eStar as we transition away from diesel and into more electric vehicles.

Certainly, I’ve been really impressed with everything I’ve seen so far of the Dealer. Its Van Sales Consultant clearly knows what he’s talking about when it comes to the technology. He’s been very informative and helpful throughout, while our eVito Tourer was delivered right on time.

"High standard of customer service which is greatly appreciated"

The job was completed on a fast turn around, professionally and to a high standard of customer service, which is greatly appreciated, as having a truck off the road for a long period of time can hinder my operation.

"The customer service is excellent"

eStar Deeside provide service, maintenance and repairs for all the Mercedes-Benz Vans we use for Amazon deliveries. The customer service is excellent. They respond to email enquiries and updates within minutes, and they work well with us to get our vans back on road quickly. And in this line of business, quick turn around is key. Big thank you to Olivia, Georgia, Lucy. We appreciate your excellence in customer service.

"Google only allows me to give eStar 5 stars ... from my personal experience, I would have given 10 stars"

eStar Trafford park.. Unfortunately, Google only allows me to give eStar 5 stars. From my personal experience I would have given 10 stars. From the moment you walk into reception, you are greeted with a friendly smile from Sam or Eddie. I get the impression that all the team at eStar are very professional in the quality of service they provide. Warren's knowledge has been unbelievable. Having my vehicle maintained at eStar has definitely enabled me to keep my Vito on the road working........ So it's 10 stars from me to all the team at eStar.

"I hope Amall looks after us because she's a credit to eStar"

Took our Sprinter in for a warranty job. Amall looked after us. She is super pleasant, very helpful. Kept us informed all the way through. Hope we don't need any more warranty work, but if we do, I hope Amall looks after us because she's a credit to eStar.
