One of the best BMW How-To’s out there. Fast paced, with crystal clear video and amazing detail while at the same time not wasting viewers’ time with bloated dialog. Great job!

Wow, that's concise and exceptional guide, even with all torque and tool bit specs. Thank you! However, don't you need to bleed the brake fluid while unwinding the piston?

[@mikes.garage]

Thank you! You can bleed fluid, but this is not necessarily.

What about to lubricate ( silicone paste) of two caliper's sliding pins?

[@mikes.garage]

No, this is different type of brakes. You can remove sliding pins and clean them but no grease.

Does the wear sensor have to be replaced every time?

[@mikes.garage]

If the sensor is worn out, yes, need to be replaced. If it’s not worn out yet, then no. But better to replace the sensor, sometimes wires on sensor can get corrosion and brake light can come out.

Do you have to change the sencor every time?

[@mikes.garage]

If the sensor is worn out, then yes

[@MaytriKosila]

A rear brake pads the same 530i and 545i??

[@mikes.garage]

Yes, should be the same

[@marinuana23]
