EBC brake discs and pads

AWSAWS · 10-02-2014, 09:34 AM

Anyone got any discount codes for EBC Direct?

I want to go EBC 3GD discs all round and yellow stuff pads...

Dude have a look in the Classifieds section as there's a 30% discount available here: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...&highlight=ebc

AWSAWS · 10-02-2014, 10:53 AM

I was too impatient and ordered already, but got 10% off.

Thanks for the info

Yes, I posted as I was actively looking for discount codes and wanted to beat the order before 3pm for next day delivery.

Hope you enjoy the products OP.

FWIW You get 30% off if you order through me and if you order by 3pm you will get next day delivery.

Cheers!

Thanks mate!
Next time I will, when that eventually happens. Pads I suppose

I'll do what I can to wear down these bad boys!

AWSAWS · 10-03-2014, 08:35 PM

What do you guys do about wear sensors for EBC pads?

Where would you order those?
Could I just get some wear sensors off say eurocarparts

After having 3 cars in the past with EBC discs I wouldn't touch them with a barge pole, they all warped

Too late for me now!

AWSAWS · 10-06-2014, 10:55 AM

When would an 'extra load' wear sensor be required?

My hope is that this was a problem with early designs and by now the problem is sorted.

mob17 · 10-06-2014, 03:28 PM

Guys it was a problem with the early designs. I wouldn't be selling them if they were shite.

I'll be using the EBC discs on my car myself soon.

AWSAWS · 10-07-2014, 06:17 AM

So if I take my car to a BMW independent, will i get the stamp in my book for replacing front and rear brakes?
The EBCs arent OEM, but they are an upgrade?
I can obviously keep the receipt for the brakes with my service receipts.

mob17 · 10-07-2014, 07:56 AM

Don't bother stamping your service book. Its just brakes which aren't a serviceable item. So it won't affect your service history.

Only thing that non-oem discs/pads can affect is warranty. But they have to prove it was the discs/pads that caused your fault. So its pretty safe to assume you'll be alright.

Thanks Mob17, I just see the front and rear brakes on the check boxes in the book.
I think uprated brakes must be a positive.

They just put the brakes on there so people assume you have to get brakes done by BMW to keep your FBMWSH.

The stock brakes are decent, good enough for daily driving, but when really pushing hard they do fade pretty quickly.

What discs did you go for? Could you give me the part number, as i'm not sure what the 3GD discs are.

What would you guys estimate as the time/cost for replacing all discs and pads (and 2 wear sensors) on an e92 335i?

I'm supplying all the parts.
