Only had the car 5 months when I bought it the idrive said rears need replacing in 32000 and fronts 4500. I've done nearly 10000 miles in car , the fronts are saying 3500 miles and the rears need changing in 450 miles

I have seen a lot of posts on this subject and Pagid brake pads come up a lot.
I used them on both of my bm's with no problems.

I agree with Alan and look on Pelican parts for the ''HOW TO'', an American site ,but very good, remember they are LHD though.

Thanks for your reply. The pads and wear indicator cost me £94 All in from BMW. How do they justify nearly £230 to fit them

One hour for labour.  Ours charges £220/hr +vat.

Been told that the major service on my X6 is £750 (inc MOT).  I’ll check whether the folks in Milton Keynes that we have just found (owned and run by ex-BMW techies) can do any better.  They only use genuine parts so slightly dearer, but their labour is £50 an hour.
