Hi All,
finally got my bimmer!
seems i need front brakes though, the dealers price had me rethinking my purchase!
hes asking 950 for a set of front pads, and 1600 for each disc.
anyone know of a recommended better priced option?
although before i bought the car, i had a look at the pads, they are still THICK. the dealer told me that the disc needs to be replaced not from abused but from hard braking. i thought an M car should be able to handle hard braking (the car has only 13000km on it, and the original tires, now almost 2 years old, are in great condition, LOTS of tread, so no abusive driving, and had there been any hard braking, it was not enough to show on the tires at all).
should this be covered under warranty? what do you guys think.
seems to me the disc should not have damage, even pad replacement at this mileage seems not right to me.
