Thanks again Dave I had never heard of the VIN Decoder site, looks as if the brakes were an upgrade. Have heard from BMW 7mm on pads and an overall inspection showed no warps. They said to monitor as car has been stood a while, thanks again for ur time

Hi Dave Many thanks I had no joy with the link but thank you anyway, I did a full check with CarCheck uk and this came up. I’m presuming that this is the reason with the upgraded brakes? Thank you for your time, I’ll let you know how I get on with the dealership.

Hi Dave Many thanks for the welcome and pointers . All of the tyres were replaced prior to collection so can confirm there isn’t any debris between discs/pads. The tech was trying to tell me that all M models did this as it’s the compound in the pads which I have never heard of. I had a M235 before and had no issues, wheel bearings not making any significant noise while in motion either. I’m unsure if the pads/discs have been replaced with after market or not but the vehicle has only covered 9k The noise is apparent forwards and backwards with either lock on or off. I have also attached a image of their genuine OEM aero kit fitment which isn’t even flush so I think I have a fight on my hands

Hi Looking for some advice pls, posted on General Chat but no joy as of yet. Slow manoeuvres creating a quite loud grinding sound as if pads are low but they are not. Forwards and Reverse, Main Dealer have said they believe it to be within tolerance as it’s a M model. Any guidance would be appreciated, Many Thanks

Hi I have recently purchased a 2023 M135i and am noticing a grinding/rubbing noise when braking especially noticeable at slow speed. BMW claiming that it’s barely noticeable so is within tolerance. Car is from main dealer and has only covered 9k with FBMWSH. Any help would be gratefully received, thank you
