Listed for the 1991–1999 BMW 318i E36, front position. Check your year, model and trim against the title before you order.

What it does

Squealing, grinding, a pulsing pedal or a long stopping distance all mean the brakes need attention. Brakes are the most important safety system on the car; replacing worn parts restores stopping power and pedal feel, and upgraded parts handle heat better.

Installation & tips

• Bed in new pads and rotors following the brand instructions, and bleed the brakes if the system was opened.
• Brake fluid: Old fluid absorbs water; flush it when you do a brake job.
• Hardware: Clips and pins wear with the pads.
• This part affects how the vehicle stops, steers or holds the road. If you are not sure how to fit it, have it installed or checked by a qualified mechanic.
