At ~48k miles, the white one is nearly due for its 1st brake job. Might as well do it right. RIGHT?!

Ahhhhhhhhhh, curse you Prop!!! I have been doing very well putting BBK systems out of my mind.

We need pics of those anchors on the truck as soon as you get around to installing them.

Hahaha…. [emoji1787][emoji1787]

I was going to say, “that sounds like a cry for help”! PM me your location, INTERVENTION!

“Hey, I don’t know how those got into the back seat of Ole’Girl.? LoL….

Looks like I’ll be the one in need of the intervention after seeing those! :D

Hey I'm sure I can do it myself, it's just more difficult with a nagging wife who may feel the need to mess with the jack handle to get her point across about taking it easy..[emoji28]

Look fantastic. :thumbup: What are your plans in the rear?

Nice. Like to hear what you think of the noise, if any. I ran a set of Stoptech slotted and cross drilled rotors for awhile. I got rid of them at the next pad change as they were quite noisy under heavy breaking.

I've had the slotted on my 4.8is for something like 9 or 10 years now and on the E39 for over 15 years. A few years ago, I did change the X5 to 6 pots up front cause, cool. But I've never had any noise problems with them. Did yours squeak?

I have the rear on my 4.8is. They're OK, but I wouldn't say that they're worth anything but the aesthetics- and even then barely so. I will likely keep them stock.

No squeak. It was like a loud rumbling under hard braking. Not a noise I get with a smooth rotor.

My slotted rotors on my E46 make noise too under hard braking. I may go blanks when it's time to change them.

I dunno if they make noise on the X5.:dunno: With all the BFD and EMERGENCY BRAKING flashing on the MID with a Christmas tree of lights thanks to my iBus settings, my ears give way to my eyes- and what the hell ever it is I am trying to avoid. :wow:

PropellerHead 06-11-2021 07:29 PM

Also..BTW.. that E46. (I totally just looked for the biggest damn smiley we got...) Love that damn car..
