WTB: Used OEM E9x M3 front brake pads

ayao · 01-12-2015, 03:03 PM

I'm looking for a set of well-worn OEM front brake pads for the E9x M3 / 1M fitment. I've got 9mm on my current set and am looking for something closer to replacement thickness which is 3mm.

gimmethemuumuu · 01-12-2015, 05:22 PM

I'm due to swap out my brakes here in another 2K miles. I'll have a used up set at that time. It'll probably be 1-2 months.

ayao · 01-12-2015, 07:54 PM

PM'd!

AnotherM3 · 01-12-2015, 10:43 PM

I'm replacing mine in about 2 weeks. I'll see how thin they are then.

ayao · 01-13-2015, 12:24 AM

That is great. Please let me know or I can hit you up in a few weeks ...

flzrider · 01-14-2015, 02:31 PM

Put me 2nd in line for a set of well worn OEM brake pads!

ayao · 03-21-2015, 12:34 AM

Bump. Anyone want to unload their burned-out OEM pads?

gimmethemuumuu · 03-21-2015, 01:11 AM

My service reminder for my front brakes just hit zero miles yesterday. (Rears were at 2500 miles yet.) I glanced at the pad thickness. They look low but not necessarily spent. I plan to open things up on Sunday and see whether I've burned through the sensor. If so, I'll swap them out. If not, I plan to reset the service reminder and wait for the sensor to pop. I'll let you know the outcome.

ayao · 05-15-2015, 12:37 PM

Bumping this up.

Would be more than happy to include as part of trade my lightly-worn fronts, too ...

bigjae1976 · 05-15-2015, 03:31 PM

Let me know if anyone wants some near worn out rear pads and some worn out rear rotors.

tdott · 05-15-2015, 04:03 PM

Are you planning to swap in some worn brakes in hopes of getting them changed by BMW?

bigjae1976 · 05-15-2015, 04:11 PM

Exactly.

BzsBimmer · 05-15-2015, 04:18 PM

Didn't know there was such a huge market for these lol
I think I have a used set of fronts in my garage. I'll post back if I do. What's the going rate for them?

I doubt mine are at the 3mm. My conditional brake pad service came on and I swapped them but I still have some meat to em. The brake sensor was never tripped.

ayao · 05-15-2015, 05:07 PM

My rotors are probably getting thin with a decent lip and significant cracking. Last time I was in the dealership they didn't even look at them and just saw that the pads had plenty of meat left, reset the CBS, and sent me on my way. People have had variable success getting brakes covered under maintenance with unmatched rotor/pad wear. I'm just hoping to make it less likely that they'll turn down the rotor replacement.
BzsBimmer -not sure what going rate is ... I suppose as much as the metal and composite that they're made out of is worth? :-)

BzsBimmer · 05-15-2015, 08:43 PM

Yeah I looked and I must've tossed them.

Ok, thanks for looking anyhow ...

ayao · 06-01-2015, 11:47 PM

Bumping this up.

You can have my lightly-worn OEM front pads (~10mm) in exchange in addition to my eternal gratitude. I'd pay for shipping and all that business as well ...

d0o0fy · 06-11-2015, 08:15 AM

Anyone else trying to get rid of worn pads? Will pay for shipping.

CosmosMpower · 06-11-2015, 10:16 AM

I have some 2-3mm track pads (front). Project Mu's

Looking for OEM pads only.

CosmosMpower · 06-11-2015, 02:07 PM

Why does everyone want dead oem brake pads? To get new pads under maintenance?
