e90 330d Rear Brake Pads

no_ball · 03-25-2012, 03:39 PM

Hello,
rear pads are down to 3mm, need to change them. Local stealer has quoted £230 for the work and they are in stock.

On the off chance that sourcing independently maybe work out cheaper, can anyone recommend a reputable brand, I have seen them on eurocarparts by TExtar, PAGID or ATE, they are between £50 to £80. Cant be that difficult to change I imagine. Thanks in advance

These are getting sold very cheap IMO.

And genuine BMW.

Take me to fleabay

'Genuine' and 'ebay' in the same sentence, must be preceded with 'possibly'

Who knows.

I would always buy critical parts from a know source, and with a credit card, and get that receipt!

Eurocarparts are cheap, and Jurid are definately supplying OEM as my BMW rears had this branding.

Pad changes on rear is around a 30min job both sides.
Dont forget you will need to repalce the rear pad wear sensor too - essential and about £15.

I would say £150 at most indy garages for this work.

Thanks Guys, c3bmw have 2 sets of pads and 2 sets of rear sensors up for 106 squids...Labour mine, find a procedure from on line somewhere..
I assume a set means a pair of pads per wheel..

They should come as an axle set - ie 4 pads.

Rear genuines are made by Textar iirc (or jurid|)and just get a BMW stamp

Texter pads off ECP are half the price from BMW

also check bmminiparts as they normally have genuines at a saving
