Hmmmm.....£30.00 seems cheap Very Happy

A decent set of pads is £50 minimum and a garage would charge at least 1 hours labour.

BMW 4+ service scheme is also worth a try - they will change pads for a fixed price (not sure if your car qualifies).

I meant no more than £30 labour plus parts, should see it all in approx £90/£100 or there abouts.

If you want OE BMW pads, then they are/should be approx. £80 +VAT? Textar/ATE pads should be had for half (or less).

I can't imagine the pads are any more difficult to change than on an E90 ... so an hour labour? And you will need to factor in the cost of sensor wire (£15) too.

Dependant on your own skill/tools/time availability should be easy DIY if you wanted to give it a go Smile
