matt45 1 Report post Posted September 19, 2008 hi all, i have a 96 e36 coupe, when it went thru compliance it had all the pads changed and i believe the rear rotors also (front rotors were not changed but are borderline)..... and now i have a lovely squeaking every time i touch the brakes which i and bmworkshop assume is because they have put in crappy aftermarket pads. I am Wanting to replace all the pads, front rotors and back if necessary (they may have also used crap rotors). So my question is should i be buying OEM BMW rotors and pads OR can someone recommend some good aftermarket ones? thanks in advance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

isis 16 Report post Posted September 19, 2008 go OEM or original - guaranteed not to squeek and bites! only problem i found is that there can be quite a bit of brake dust. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
