Why does it seem the 128i creates so much more brake dust than any other vehicle I have ever known. Also it seems the front rotors are wearing faster than most others with 13k on it. The car definitely stops better than most and am really happy with the performance.

Is this why BMW requires rotors & pads to be replaced together?

Thanks for any feedback or advice

really soft pads, yeah it sucks a bit lol

they shouldn't wear fast though, as far as i can tell mine have never been changed, the sensors say 20-25,000km to go and i'm at 94,000 now
