Brake pad sensors
Never changed the pads in a BMW before and assumed there was a sensor in each pad therefore you need to buy 4 new ones.
Seems however its only one sensor per axle from quotes I have been getting, can anyone confirm this? |

Reason I thought there were 4 was, what happens if one side is sticking a bit and thus the pad wears more, if the sensor is on the other side could this not cause an issue?
