335i tweeting brakes defect code from dealer

brentseay · 06-02-2010, 05:53 PM

I've had tweeting noises during slow driving from my brakes (when not braking) ever since I bought the car 3 weeks ago. I've read on the forums and all over and the main problem associated with tweeting seemed to be brake sensors. I took it in to make use of my warranty/maintenance program and the problem has seemingly been fixed. (I will post again in 6 months whether the fix lasted as most others haven't.)

They quoted a Reference # and a defect code in the receipt. I've posted the receipt below for you guys to make heads/tails of it. Not sure if anyone else having this problem could just quote the reference SIB # and defect code and get a quicker fix or not. Hope it helps someone.

Total cost to fix: $0.00 to owners w/ warranty.

Had the same thing happen, I had my brake pads, sensors, and new paste put on and no problems for about 3 weeks so far.

Give them the defect code or REF # and see what they say please. I posted this because I'm interested if these codes mean anything at all to BMW mechanics. It would drive me effin nuts if the dealer wouldn't fix this problem. And make sure they drive your car for a while and heat the brakes up. That's when my brakes would start tweeting.
