BMW Rotors and Brake Pads!
yea i need to change mine, my rear rotors r all out of shape for some reason. i heard u need to change the brake sensor to anyway (the sensor isn't on yet). is that true u must change the sensor? and if u just change pads, rotors must be changed to?
since i'm changing rotors anyway, im thinking about just going ahead and getting some brembos...good idea? or just go for oem?

If your onboard computer hasn't gone off telling you you need new brakes, then no, you don't need to replace the sensor.

i heard you have to replace the sensors everytime... well thats what the dealer did everytime i got new pads
as for rotors... it doesent really matter i would just get oems again. you wouldnt feel that much of a difference with slotted rotors unless you get larger rotors and calipers like an m5 setup

The sensor is cheap($10.00), and they usually break when you pull it out of the old pad.
