Thank you for taking the time to post this video. I replaced my M-sport brakes myself last week and used this video as a check to make sure I did it properly!👍 Thanks again and please keep up the good work!🙏
My brother you are absolutely welcome!!! I'm really glad you got it done on your own..once you start you realize it's a walk in the park. Much love and respect my brother seriously 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks a lot! Today I changed rotors and brake pads with your help. Went smooth! The only thing missing in the video is information about brake sensor - which side inside which outside but I assumed that flat side should be outside. Thanks!
Thanks. Video helped me to see it's quite a easy change. Just a note. This is the M Sport Brake system that doesn't come with all cars. Mine has the M brakes and this was perfect. Going to pick up a replacement set today and quickly do the brakes
Wowza!!! Never seen an easier brake job before, thanks so much! I assume the rotors were still in good shaping without needing to be replaced or resurfaced?
this is the simplest brake pad job I have ever seen. thank you so much my friend! couple questions: 1- does this work for 2021 LCI with brake regen? if I don't use Bimmer code yet (under warrantee) can I reset brake from IDrive 7?
Thank you for thr kind words my friend I appreciate it!! So yes this willwork with 2021. Just open bimmerlink and deactivate! Second you can use bimmerlink to reset. This will not void your warranty.. You can also use bimmercode no problem!
Makes me wish I had the M-sport brakes, not for increased braking power but rather for the simplicity. Out of curiosity, you put lube on the surface of the pad that touches the rotor?
I know that the G30 M sport 374mm brakes can fit on an F10. But would it be safe to assume that the G30 M performance 395mm calipers could also fit on the F10 if they bolt on the same as G30 M Sport calipers??
Can you also use a screwdriver to push the pistons on the REAR caliper AFTER rolling back the electromechanical actuator? Or do you need a clamp or special tool
These fixed caliper pad swap is so easy. The local shop wants 240 just for labor each for front and rear. lol, hell no. The rear is a bit tricky bc BMW cheap out putting floating caliper unlike on f30 all fixed caliper front and rear. Also u can reuse the sensor if it is not triggered already or not fused to the pad bc of wear.
I am gonna be doing mine in couple days both front and rear thanks to your videos but I do have one question I am gonna be doing discs as well do I have to remove the caliper on front to change the disc? I know on back the disc will slide out without removing the caliper bracket . Tia
I removed the pins but the pads would not move. This is 2018 540 with 58,000 mi on it, there some wear on the rotor already, perhaps contributing to the problem. The rotor spins, so I know it's not jammed. Tried to knock on them from the back with no effect. Put the pins back and thinking I need that spreader tool BMW listed in their instructions. Did anyone else have this problem?
For you guys freaking out I love to lube my pads up alot. I've had to remove calipers before even after I thought I had enough grease so now I just put it everywhere. After applying the brakes 1 time it will dissipate so its not a huge issue.
Seems like my 540i 2019 m sport came without the m sport brakes, but the continental 348x36 in the front…do you think its necessary to upgrade to 374x36 for a daily driver?
Thanks so much for the great video! But would help to pause on now to enter the diagnosis mode, guys like me who do it once in few years, would appreciate it.
Absolutely welcome my brother! I'll definitely keep this in mind next video. I appreciate your input as it helps the channel get bet better! Much love ✌️
I just did my front break pads on my g20 with m sport breaks ... followed all instruction from video .. then went for spin and there was click noise everytime I released break pedal .. after like 15 released click noise gone . However I parked my car and went to shop and start driving again click noise from pedal again . Every time I park car and start driving click noise coming back and after breaking it stops ... any idea what that would be ... its coming from the pedal ...🤷♂️

How much were the parts and where did you order them? For G30 540i with blue M sport brakes?
Pls don’t stop doing these vids !! I’m waiting on you to change your cluster so I can change mine too. Great vids man
Appreciate you my brother seriously

My brother!! Your very welcome 🙏

Right!!!! Walk I the park honostly..but yes the rotors were still good and no lip was present.
Thanks brother, Perfect video! Greets from Germany

best video for changing the brakes - thanks! Which camera did you use? Really great!
Thank you so much!! At the tike this was filmed on an IPhone. We've now switched to a Canon Dslr
F90 brakes are different. U have to remove the caliper unlike the g30 brakes for the front. The rears are the same technique for both the g30 and f90
Do you need to take the caliper off to remove the rotor or is there enough clearance with the pads remove to slide the rotor off the hub ring?
help my pins wont come out any advice? i got the pin tools and trying to hammer but the pins seem to not budge like yours
I know that the G30 M sport 374mm brakes can fit on an F10. But would it be safe to assume that the G30 M performance 395mm calipers could also fit on the F10 if they bolt on the same as G30 M Sport calipers??
Is this DIY pretty much the same on the G20s?
Yessir!
Can you also use a screwdriver to push the pistons on the REAR caliper AFTER rolling back the electromechanical actuator? Or do you need a clamp or special tool
You can but a simple inexpensive push back tool is better than a screwdriver.
It’s also possible to push them back by hand in some cases.

Thank you very much for the vid, very helpful as always!!!
Absolutely!!! Stay tuned for more
Great vid just a quick question is there a sensor on each corner as in 2 front 2 rear or is it just 1 on the front and 1 on the rear?
Thsnk you!! 1 in front 1 in rear!
This is only for m-sport brakes, yes?
Great video! Where did you buy that long steel push pin?
Any local hardware store will have. i bought from Autozone.
I removed the pins but the pads would not move. This is 2018 540 with 58,000 mi on it, there some wear on the rotor already, perhaps contributing to the problem. The rotor spins, so I know it's not jammed. Tried to knock on them from the back with no effect. Put the pins back and thinking I need that spreader tool BMW listed in their instructions. Did anyone else have this problem?
Did u figure this out
Good video, I noticed you greased pad on disc side, is that normal on these cars? Never seeing it on any other cars tbh
Thank you my friend! The owner of the vehicle insisted we do it so I allowed him to do so! I wouldn't recommend it ✅️
This is a massive NO. Never lubricate the pad material. The lubricant goes on the back side of the pad where it meets the calliper pistons.
@@markmateri2458 thats what I thought
For you guys freaking out I love to lube my pads up alot. I've had to remove calipers before even after I thought I had enough grease so now I just put it everywhere. After applying the brakes 1 time it will dissipate so its not a huge issue.
@@jamesclaeys3192 no it's not. You hit the brakes once and the grease comes off.
Seems like my 540i 2019 m sport came without the m sport brakes, but the continental 348x36 in the front…do you think its necessary to upgrade to 374x36 for a daily driver?
If you don't plan on tuning or going over 120 on a regular basis then not really needed.
@@FullBoltOnGarage plan on going stage 1 mhd tho…i would like to keep my cat.
Mhd Stage 1 requires no upgrades just the tune! The b58 is designed pretty good from factory and you can keep the kitty!
@@FullBoltOnGarage yeah ik, just shocked to see it came with no m sport brakes on such a car 😀
Agreed! The original owner opted out unfortunately. I've yet to come across 2 identical G30 cars..
Where is the best place to order OEM brake pads? Or where did you order your parts from?
You didn't change the rotors too?
I have a 2019 M550i, was this an M550i in the video? And is there only one sensor for both front wheels?
Thanks so much for the great video! But would help to pause on now to enter the diagnosis mode, guys like me who do it once in few years, would appreciate it.
Absolutely welcome my brother! I'll definitely keep this in mind next video. I appreciate your input as it helps the channel get bet better! Much love ✌️
So there's only a sensor on one side?
Will this work with a 2019 5401 x drive?
Very helpful video. Thank you
what size is disc?
I just did my front break pads on my g20 with m sport breaks ... followed all instruction from video .. then went for spin and there was click noise everytime I released break pedal .. after like 15 released click noise gone . However I parked my car and went to shop and start driving again click noise from pedal again . Every time I park car and start driving click noise coming back and after breaking it stops ... any idea what that would be ... its coming from the pedal ...🤷♂️
Did you find out what the problem was with the noise as I have the same problem
@bigbuff2006 I took my car for spin on motorway and then click noises gone ... I believe that break pads just needed to settle down
How many mm 348 or 374 are the front brake discs?
Which brake pads did you use?
I have the sport line version 540 is it the same way
Mostly yes! Pretty straightforward once you are looking at how the caliper is held on
This is good awesome...very informative. Gonna get my brakes now.
Wow that’s so much easier than the non m sport break wtf
Should make a video for the regular brakes. Shit is worse than this
Wow! Great video.
Thank you so much!! Means alot 🙏🙏
It looks so easy 🤷♂️
It seriously is bro. A walk in the park
wow awesome👌 thanks alot 😀😊
Most welcome 😊
F90 M5 brakes are different, caliper must come off.
But guys - the blue paint of the caliper wasn’t your friend
please don’t use the metal to push it in will maybe bend rotor
Crazy how I'm watching this video and realize we have the same phone with the same case😎
keep it up
Thank you cousin
👍🏿
🙏🙏
how many miles on it when you changed the pads ?
