BMW F30 Rear Brake Pad & Disc Replacement DIY (228i, 328i, 430i, & More)

►This instructional DIY covers two jobs—BMW F30 brake pad replacement and BMW F30 brake disc or rotor replacement. Both of these jobs are being performed on a BMW 328i xDrive with the standard brake caliper set up.

Today, Gareth Foley, FCP Euro's BMW Catalog Manager, replaces the dusty OEM BMW pads with TRW Ultra Ceramic brake pads paired with Zimmerman rotors on this 328i xDrive. The TRW pads offer comparable stopping power to the OEM pads while being both quieter and less dusty.

Follow along as Gareth takes us through the step-by-step process of replacing your BMW F30 brake pads and discs with minimal tools.
