WarNox 1 Report post Posted January 14, 2007 yeah brake pads are 120 for a pair and if u need rotors they are 100each or so. oh and then u need those sensor things which are like 12 bucks each or something. its worth getting oem. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Braeden320 0 Report post Posted March 11, 2008 Sorry for bringing up an old thread but its better than starting a new one on the same topic. So the 320 needs a new set of front pads, after reading this i'll go for OEM, Best place to buy would be the dealer I assume? Also do I need to replace the sensor on the Left Hand Brake Caliper when I do the pads, Interesting that there wasn't on the Right Hand Caliper.

Carl 3 Report post Posted March 12, 2008 Sensors are front left and rear right, if you want you can simply close circuit them, but having the sensor in is a good indicator. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
