Research on Brake Pads for BMW 335i

At just 12 millimeters thick, new brake pads are enough to keep your braking system working and prevent collisions. Excessive wear can cause a lot of damage and is dangerous. You can avoid many problems by having your BMW 335i brakes inspected regularly. Brake pad replacement is an eventuality for all motor vehicles. It doesn't have to be expensive, but you do have to be proactive since the pads are designed to wear and do so every time you step on the pedal.

Common Signs of Brake Pad Wear

Noise is the most common sign your brake pads are starting to wear out. High-pitched screeches are not only unpleasant, but indicative of thin pads. A metal shim contacts the rotor to help drivers know when the brake pads need replacement. Sometimes moisture (or rust) on the brake rotor can cause a similar sound, but rarely. You'd only hear the sound once in that case, and not repeatedly. If you hear grinding, then most likely you need BMW 335i brake pads and rotors. A clicking sound may be heard as well. It happens because manufacturers install parts that keep the pads from rattling, but tells you the old pads are worn. Also, the car might pull to one side when the brakes are applied. Thin pads can leave more room between the caliper and rotor, so you have to press down on the pedal farther to stop the car. If the brake pedal pulsates, it is a sure sign of worn BMW OEM brake pads, and you might need new rotors as well.

What Is the Material of Brake Pads?

Most brake pads in modern automobiles are semi-metallic. Steel, copper, or brass metal shavings, or a combination of materials, are used. These materials are held together with a resin. Brake pads were originally made from asbestos, but the dangers of asbestos dust led to use of other non-metallic materials such as glass or even Kevlar. Ceramic is sometimes used, but is the most expensive. They wear slowly and are more often used in race cars.

How Much Does It Cost to Get Brake Pads?

Brake pads are replaced when you have symptoms they are worn, or if a mechanic finds they are below three millimeters thick. Replacement will be done whether the pads have lasted 25,000 or 50,000 miles. Wear rates vary based on many factors. For 2008 BMW 335i brake pads in front, the price is in the range of $244 to $327. Rear pads are $205 to $273. In general, BMW brake pads are not expensive, but you will incur some labor charges. These are unavoidable unless you have the time and experience to safely install new brake pads.
