Guys, I have a 2009 E90 LCI 320d and I'm not able to find out within realoem.com which are the exact part numbers for front and for rear brake pads 😟. Literally there are four part number options for the front pads and I'm unable to understand which one I should choose so I can later purchase them online. I live in Guatemala and our local dealer sells these at ridiculous prices ($320 just for the front pad set without sensors), I know that importing them (OEM of course) myself will be cheaper .

I might not get any response but I'm desperate and looking for options to get help, because the Dealer refuses to give me the part numbers of course.

Thanks

I'm not a 320d person but i went to real oem dot com for a look. I saw three offerings. 2 of 3 had pictures and if you zoom in on them, you can see individual part numbers on the inboard and outboard pads. Would be too much of a pain to pull apart on of your brake assmblies and see if your part numbers are visible? Tischer parts (getbmwparts dot com) lets you search by part number/ If you you find your own #s and they don't match real OEM, you could search under your numbers. Another good place to look is rmeuropean dot com. They have OEM offerings so you could look for duplication of one of the numbers that real OEM gives.

Above is link to what i found on real oem for 2009 LCI 320d 1/1009 production left hand drive. I had to guess on the 1/2009 and left hand drive though. good luck

EDIT: I went to rmeuropean site and they didn't have E90 320D as a listing. I entered 328i and found the part number for it matches the first pad set on realoem ending in 711. Perhaps determine if 320D and 328i share same front brake pads first. I know 335D and 335i share same brake parts

Thanks so much for the time you took and try to help me man! I'm so confused about what of the 4 choices within realoem.com I should choose.

I hope I find the correct parts without the need of taking off my current pads

Thank you again

Please determine what size rotors you have on your car: 312mm or the 320mm. Once you know, you really only have two choices. You can also try cross referencing the brake pad part number to other BMWs like 328s and make sure it is a current version. You can just remove your front wheel and measure your rotor diameter.

Oh I see, thanks for that pointer! I will check on that
