Do the rotors need to be replaced on a 90K Mercedes? I heard no grinding noise before I took it in.

if you can live with the grinding and squaling that will be present after you stuff the pads in. these have fixed calipers and your rotors will have high ridges on outer and inner edges the pads will ride on these.
