Mercedes rotors are never to be turned. If they get warped or wear
down, they are to be replaced.

Rusty sells 'em separately, but I think the dealer will too...the underlying
question is if you are having him do the pads, why does he insist on doing
the rotor also. The only time you **have** to change rotors is when they
wear down to less than minimum thickness and can't be turned. I suppose
they should be turned every time you do the pads, but I generally don't.
Sounds like a money robbing exercise to me....
