We’ve been cleaning out our auto repair shop in Cincinnati lately. We’ve made some interesting finds: a vintage BMW engine, an old flex pipe we should have thrown out years ago, even some old random tools we wrote off as history. But we never found...
Wondering if that brake job for your BMW will also need new rotors? That’s the several hundred dollar question, the difference between a fairly cheap car repair and an obnoxiously expensive one. And of course it’s also the difference in time. Replace the pads before they wear thin, and you usually won’t have to worry about replacing the rotors. Generally, if your brakes are squeaking, they need replacing. And if you hear grinding, then your rotors are likely shot too. Wobbling brakes are also bad news for the rotors. It indicates the brake pads are not connecting properly. Head that BMW straight to the mechanic pronto!
