    Btw Ankur. I have a nice trick to not loosing a lot of brake fluid. When putting down the brake pedal by a piece of wood (protected) pushing against the front seat(all the way down), no break fluit will leak out. So it saves you break fluit and a lot of mess. And you don't have to hurry up by replacing the calliper. Very handy on a steel brake line change too....Dutch regards

    @JesusChrist.4BC Před 4 lety +2

    can you explain why the rear brakes can't be done like this? well I mean i know that it causes the e-brake to not function properly because of its size. So I guess I would like to know if you can explain if there is a way to get the rear brakes upgraded to a 330i rotor while also keeping the e-brake function. Does the e-brake pads and assembly need to be swapped as well?

    • @seacronos7303
      @seacronos7303 Před 3 lety +1

      No difference on breaking distance. But bigger breaks loose heat faster, and also gain heat slowly, so your don't end up loosing your breaks under heavy load. Also,running significantly colder means no rotors will bent.

      Yes, and in fact 325Xi is the only car in the whole lineup to which you can fit 330 rear brakes without any modification because 325Xi comes from factory with larger 330 parking brake shoes. This does not apply to 325i, only 325xi.
