Re: 330ci : Brake disc needs replacement after 10,000 km ?!



It sounds like they want to replace them because they are corroded. Not because they are worn, cracked, etc.

So, do you experience brake judder, any abnormal braking, etc? If not, I would personally leave them on there.

Hi Folks,

a BMT 330ci is in the workshop - they called and want to replace the
brake discs after less than 10000km. It is about 18 months old.

The car has been used occasionally within the city for short rides.
Waiting for days for the next usage, it is clear that the discs start
to corrode after some days. But can this mean that you have to replace
them that early ?!

I guess this is not a BMW-specific topic - except if they used the
wrong material...

Any technical hints are welcome - thanks in advance!
Klaus.
