This video shows you how to install new front brake pads and rotors from TRQ on your 2008-2013 BMW 328i xDrive. Brake pads wear out over time, much like tires, and need replacing, on average, every 50,000 miles, with variations depending on driving habits and environment. Brake rotors may also need to be replaced if they are warped or grooved. Often, it’s safer and more cost effective to replace pads and rotors at the same time. Squealing or grinding noises, or wheel vibration are all symptoms of worn brakes.

Estimated installation time for a professional technician is approximately: 1 hour 24 minutes
