We verify remaining pad thickness during every visit and provide a written measurement.

Your brake appointment begins with a visual inspection and a precise measurement of remaining pad thickness at each wheel. We then measure rotor thickness and compare it to the BMW-stamped minimum spec, check rotor condition for hot spots and scoring, and assess brake hose and caliper condition. Hardware is inspected and replaced as required, caliper slides are cleaned and lubricated, and we verify brake fluid level and condition. If pad-and-rotor replacement is approved, components are fitted to BMW torque specs and bedded-in as applicable. A road test confirms pedal feel, NVH, and ABS activation.
