This caliper bushing kit will eliminate flex caused by weak rubber caliper bushings. As the brake pedal is pressed the caliper grabs the rotor and twists on its mounting bushings. The rubber bushings allow the caliper to deflect and twist which affects pedal feel and results in uneven pad wear. These solid brass bushings will not twist or deflect so your calipers can squeeze the pads evenly on both sides of the rotor (sort of like what multi-piston big brakes do). This will give you much longer pad life and a more consistent pedal feel. This is the most complete kit we have ever sold with stainless steel caliper slide bolts, o-rings, and new dust boots. Unlike other kits, these bushings are pressed into the caliper and will not shift or slide on their own.

Installation is straightforward: remove the old rubber bushings and press in the new brass bushings (we recommend special tool 003326ECS03). High temp caliper grease or anti-seize is required. The new bushings include an inner o-ring that helps trap grease on the slide bolt, reducing friction and wear.

For most models with floating calipers. Fits the rear of E90/2 and E60, but for the front you'll need the kit found here. Does not fit E30 models with Girling calipers, but is compatible with Ate calipers. 

Installs bushings straight and true with minimal effort. Includes tools for both iron and aluminum calipers. Purchase only one tool set for your entire caliper guide bushing upgrade - tools are not one time use.

BRAKE BLEEDER:

We know bleeding brake alone is not only no fun, but much more complicated than it needs to be. Having a pressure bleeder give you the ability to keep the pressure on the brake system while you go under and crack open the bleeder screws to relieve the air pockets.

Features:

• Holds a full 3-Liters (3.17 qts) of brake fluid
• Easy to read 0-30 lbs pressure gauge built into the tank top
• Pressure relief valve for safe release of pressure
• 40" hose with detachable swivel fitting

Note:

• Do not exceed 20 PSI
• LIFETIME REPLACEMENT

Includes:

• 3 Liter (3.17 qts) storage tank
• Pressure cap with 0-30 lb gauge and pressure relief valve
• 40" hose
• Dual preventative fittings on the hose, featuring a chrome quick coupler on one end to snap onto the master cylinder cap and a detachable swivel fitting on the other end

Note:

• Recommend working at 10 PSI
• Dimensions for cap seal: 12x21x4 mm
• LIFETIME REPLACEMENT

CATCH BOTTLE:

Keep your fluid's off the floor and into our catch bottle.  The bottle has fluid level markings from 0.2L to 0.7 liter. This feature allows you to measure how much fluid you have sent thru the system.  Our bleeder bottle features an expandable/collapsible top portion for easier storage. Gasket in cap prevents leakage. Tubing is extra long at 24" from cap to nipple. Flexible hose can be pushed down into bottle for storage when done. Bottle now features a handy hanger bracket to hang bottle from bottom of car.

CALIPER HOOK SET:

Tired of messing with bent coat hangers or bungee cords to hang your calipers up and out of the way when performing brake maintenance? These hooks make working on your brakes easier by letting you hang your calipers with ease, no more fighting with the bungee cords or zip ties to hold the caliper just right or having to make your own "custom" hooks with wire.

• Holds brake calipers out of the way while working on brakes
• Also use to hang other automotive parts and tools while working on your vehicle.
• Stronger than zip ties or wire.
• Save the brake hose by not hanging caliper by hose.
• Made of  thick steel for strength and durability. length is 8"

BILLET ALUMINUM CAP:

This aluminum cap with 90 degree swivel will work with our T#363245 Euro bleeder or our T#366970 3-Liter Multi-functional Fluid Pump Kit.

Features an all aluminum 45mm cap with quick coupler nipple.

BLEEDER WRENCH:

Finally, a bleeder wrench with just the right angle to open the bleeder screw without having to spend all that time removing each wheel from your car.

From years of European automotive experience, the enthusiasts at ECS Tuning have developed a strong understanding of what it takes to produce a high-quality brake pad. After thousands of miles and many different pad compounds, they've landed on the ideal blend for the new DD23 "Daily Driver" brake pad! This enthusiast-developed pad offers confident stopping power, very low dust, quiet braking, and a positive initial bite. The perfect choice for your daily-driven Euro!

If you find yourself “pumping the brakes” over the brake pad selection process for your daily driver, your answer is this DD23 pad. This is the one!

As a team of enthusiasts who own all types of European cars, we have the advantage of the exposure that comes with the enthusiast lifestyle - and have a strong understanding of what makes a great brake pad. In the pursuit of a really great brake pad for daily driving, we’ve tested a wide range of brake pads. After thousands of test miles, iterating through a variety of pad compounds, we’ve landed on the ideal blend for our DD23 Daily Driver ceramic pad.

Features:

Good stopping power - Brake pads need to stop your car, period, so this is key. We focused on selecting a compound that offers a healthy level of friction (both when hot and when cold) for safe, positive stopping power.

Positive initial bite - You should feel your brakes engage as you press the pedal, but it should not feel like an on/off switch! Advanced ceramic composition means you’ll enjoy a smooth transition on and off of the brake pedal, meaning your passengers will have a comfortable ride in stop-and-go traffic. We’ve hit a good balance here.

Very low-dust - Some factory-installed pads are eye-poppingly dusty, which is a no-go for us. Thanks to the composition of this ceramic pad, which is copper-free and contains a negligible amount of other metals, dust is both lighter in color and very limited in amount. We’ve improved on the “dust factor” without sacrificing on bite and stopping power as a good compromise, which will be a win for anyone who doesn’t detail daily (or anyone who does, too!)

Quiet braking - It’s not a race pad, so it shouldn’t squeal like one. Extremely low metallic composition means they will not squeal. DD23 is comfortable and quiet - both on the ears and in lack of vibration transmitted through the cabin.

Long life - This should be an obvious one. Your daily driver pads should last and last, so that was key in selecting our ideal compound. This is another benefit to having ceramic material composition versus a softer organic pad (which have higher metallic and various organic elements) and wear much faster. Ours are kind to rotors, too (no accelerated wear characteristics) for many miles of motoring.

From years of European automotive experience, the enthusiasts at ECS Tuning have developed a strong understanding of what it takes to produce a quality high-performance brake pad. After thousands of miles and many different pad compounds, they've landed on the ideal blend for the new EP24 "Enthusiast Performance" brake pad! If you're looking for a streetable, track-capable, performance brake pad, look no further than the ECS EP24!

Features & Benefits:

Strong stopping power - Increased coefficient of friction offers satisfying stopping power when cold (a necessity for a street pad!) and even more G-force-inducing power when they warm up. With cold and warm friction comparable to Hawk HPS (and higher than many other street pads) the stopping experience with the EP24 pad is impressive for street-driven vehicles on streetable tires. Positive initial bite - Race pads have the reputation of acting like an on/off switch, which is a no-go for a pad for a street application. The EP24 offers OE-level initial bite for low-stress braking in stop-and-go situations. Reasonable dust - Race pads utilize a high metallic composition. Pads that use high amounts of metal not only dust terribly, but also will bake onto wheels with high temperatures and are a bear to clean. This is not the case with these performance street pads. Now using these pads on most of our shop cars, we’ve found over time that dust is comparable to factory pads in most applications (with greatly improved braking performance). Quiet braking - It’s not a race pad, so it shouldn’t squeal like one. While not as quiet as our ceramic DD23 pad, you’ll still be able to drive your spouse to dinner. Long life - This should be an obvious one. Even in a performance pad, your daily driver pads should last and last, so that was key in selecting our ideal compound. This compound wears slower and is kinder to rotors than two of the top competitors.

EP24 "Enthusiast Performance" brake pads are included in our Lifetime Replacement Program for worry-free motoring.

The caliper sliding bolts are one of the most overlooked wear items in your braking system. Subjected to constant motion and often without adequate lubrication the guide bolts see a lot of wear and tear. Factory BMW caliper guide bolts are very expensive from the dealer - these 304 stainless steel bolts are less than half the price and provide outstanding resistance to corrosion and wear. They are manufacturered with tighter tolerances than the factory bolts too.

Price is per bolt unless noted (2 required per caliper).
