BMW Brakes & Brake Parts for BMW 5 Series F10 (2011-2016)

This brake package for the 2011+ BMW F10 535i comes with everything you need to perform a major brake overhaul --

Front and rear brake rotors with hardware - stock Genuine BMW, coated OEM-spec (anti-corrosion)
Front and rear brake pads - stock Genuine BMW, factory OEM, low dust semi-metallic
Front and rear pad wear sensors
Brake fluid (DOT4 or DOT5.1 low viscosity)

Our brake package uses the same replacement parts from the same manufacturers as BMW dealers use to service your car. The big difference is that we're able to offer these parts for a substantial savings from the dealer markup price. As an independent company we're able to buy our parts from multiple OEM suppliers whereas BMW dealers must buy their parts from BMW. We're able to shop from different vendors which gets you a better price while still maintaining original quality. You don't have to pay high prices at the dealer to get the same quality and performance!

In some cases, we offer performance alternatives to the OEM items. For an enthusiastic BMW owner, the standard BMW part may be inadequate and we offer an upgraded part, based on our almost 20 years of BMW tuning experience. We seek out high quality suppliers and designs that we would want on our own vehicles. Many times performance parts will fix a design flaw with the original BMW part, improving your performance at the same time.

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.
