Car: 2003 330i Manual facelift Issue: Random brake rubbing after 10 minutes of driving. Rubbing occurs front right side wheel. Disc is rubbing on pad. Also it appears that both left side discs/pads don't engage/disengage fully. Car does pull to the left a bit. History: had ABS pressure sensor...

For some reason, don’t know what exactly, but the abs and traction control light stays on (325ci). I replaced the brake fluid and made sure that’s all good, but some times the lights go away, very rarely tho. It seems that the only time it’s ever been off is when it’s rained, probably...

I bought my 2001 330xi last week and on my drive home after buying the vehicle my DSC and my red brake light turned on. I was using cruise control on the way home but after the lights turned on the cruise control doesn't work, but I don't know if this was related. I was just curious if anyone...

I need to replace my brake booster on my 2004 330Ci. I bought it thinking I'd do it myself, but it's seemingly a more daunting task than I'd originally thought. Has anyone had a shop do this job? On my model it's buried under the electronics box, not in the drug bin. How many hours did they...

Hello, During the process of doing the brakes and adding SS lines, it was discovered that the bubble flare on the hardline was not seating properly and causing a leak. SO I cut off the old flare, and used a flare tool to remake it. Since this is my first time ever doing so, naturally I didn't...

Hello lads my car is a 2004 325i. Recently I have been some problem, such as, the brakes would occasionally fail. It works most of the time, but if I happens to brake really hard, it will lose brake after that, as in the pedal goes to the floor, and the brake light goes on. Then after a while...

Hi im looking for the best brake pads that isnt expensive for my 2001 bmw e46. I would appreciate all your guys suggestions. Its just for daily street driving and isnt thinking about buyin expensive upgrades or anything but if the cost is reasonable for the performance of the pad i will. and...

I’ll be driving my 2001 325i :excited:and all of the sudden it feels like the drivers side front wheel grabs for a second and then lets go. Then the yellow dash DSC and “Brake” light will come on and stay on until I shut the car off. They usually reset. Occasionally, when driving, the yellow...

Recently bought a 325ci it's a 2001 117k on the clock. The brakes make a buzzing/vibrating sound which you feel through the brake pedal when at low speeds coming to a stop. Spoke to Halfords and they said could be the rotors being warped although im not convinced (pretty sure front pads need...

Recently bought a 325ci it's a 2001 117k on the clock. The brakes make a buzzing/vibrating sound which you feel through the brake pedal when at low speeds coming to a stop. Spoke to Halfords and they said could be the rotors (think front pads need changing) I was reading online and could be...

I had my car garaged for some time while I was painting it. When I finished the job and drove the car after, the ABS, DSC, and (yellow) BRAKE lights all came on. These lights will come back on immediately if I disconnect the battery and start the car - they do not need the car to be moving to...

How would I install dynamic brake force display on my BMW. It's a 2005 325ci with the led tail lights.

Hey All, Long time BMW owner, first time poster. Title says most of it. I went away for Christmas break for 3 weeks and came back to find my computer (with the mileage, temp, etc.) blank (light still on, but blank). The car still works fine so I think nothing of it. Fast forward 2 days and I...

Does anyone know of a way to get coupe tail lights to fit on a vert? I've read that they are different but I have yet to find out in what way or why they don't interchange. It seems that many of the nicer lights aren't made for verts or cost more than the coupe equivalent. I'd really rather not...

Hi all. I left my '03 325i Touring parked for three weeks while I went on a business trip. When I got in the car to drive it, it wouldn't move - is if it were in Park and the hand brake engaged. I checked. I was in reverse. The hand brake was off. Odd. I tried Drive. Then Reverse. Several...

Hi, does anyone have or have used a brake bleeder like this? I have a chance to get one for cheap and I need to do a fluid flush anyway. How does this work and do I need an adapter for the master cylinder?

When I bought my e46, it sounded like it needed new pads, so I replaced the fronts. Shortly after this, I still noticed a screech at slower speeds so I replaced the back pads; still no dice, unfortunately. I put a good amount of synthetic brake grease on every single pad. I also cleaned off...

I have a 2005 M3 with 80k miles, the last time I had the front pads changed my machanic advised that I should look to change the front rotors soon.. that was a while back.. I've never had any performance problems with the stock setup set up but as Im gonna be spending some cash and the original...
