It's 13000 kilometers from the last one, so I thought it was time for some new oil, oil filter, spark plugs... I drove to my friends to do the job. The service was done in matter of minutes... I didn't even get a chance to finish my Red Bull. :o)
Right... A few days after that, my front brakes started producing some horrible tunes... :( I thought I would just replace the pads... but no. The pads were 110% worn, and the discs - well, they were even worse.
One thing always bothered me with the 316. The front discs were single-piece, not vented. Meaning, the brakes would quickly fade after just minutes of spirited driving.
Luckily, I had some 325 discs, calipers and pads lying around the garage, so I decided to go for a upgrade. The job is pretty straight-forward, since everything is plug and play. :)
Here's a picture of the 325 disc mounted on my 316:
If you like, I can make a picture of the old pads and discs... :o)
Just leave a comment. :)
Some stuff that you'll probably need for a oil/brake service:
P.S.
This is the filter that I use - Great stuff:
(make sure that you get the correct one for your engine)
