That may be. I'm going to bleed the brakes just in case it's related to the pedal travel - didn't open the system but had some fluid leak from under the reservoir cap.

That aside, I absolutely agree with the value and performance of the BrakeMotive kit. I'm not tracking the X5 either but I'm comfortable with these handling anything I'd throw at them. Beyond the quality parts these guys were just great to work with - fast and free shipping, domestic company, great communication, etc. I
