135i M brakes pads question
RealOEM shows different part numbers for front pads for 235i with grey M sport brakes. Upto 10/2010 production is one part number and after 10/2010 is another.
Is this just different pad compound or pads are indeed different size/shape? |

I'm due for new rotors/pads now, and saw the same delineation/production changeover. I didn't think there were changes to the calipers at all other than paint colour (they were painted darker in later years I think, LCI). Why would the pads be different? Is it a different compound rather than fit? Makes pad selection a trial and error exercise for me since the calipers I have came separate from the car so production date doesn't apply! Thanks in advance. |

Although the F2x F3x F8x all share the same Brembo blue sport caliper the pad part numbers different between the models as well. |
