So that explains all the pinging

blotto649 · 08-14-2011, 05:09 PM

Having had my 1M out on the track a couple times, I was amazed by how much the car was pinging away after coming into the paddock after each session. Although it's for the new M5, this vid explains why...

Cool

Heard the pinging on mine too yesterday! Though it has been nowhere near a track!

Time to upgrade to M5 brakes. Wonder what they cost.

1M front brake rotors: $336 each!
1M front brake pads: $190 set plus sensor $27

Are the 2012 M5 brakes similar to those on our 1M's, in concept?

I was shocked about the price of brake pads 135 that is crazy

is there gold in them? Compare price with after market 2x difference
