Unmistakable judder when braking. Local dealer refused to believe me, and wanted to "take measurements". |

Zitat von Paul B im Beitrag #1 I hope you get them replaced under warranty but a fiver says you won't (I'll happily pay up). You shouldn't be so bloody late on the brakes you hooligan!

Zitat von Fugly im Beitrag #4 Oh, I'm fairly sure that the warranty claim will be denied - already found new Brembo discs on eBay for about £140 each and will probably fit new pads at the same time, so not a cheap undertaking. And while I agree that brake discs are consumables, they're meant to slowly get thinner with wear, not warp after 20k miles, even if the bike is being ridden by a hooligan  It's a bit like the sintering coming away from the metal back of a brake pad, and the dealer saying, "Well, that's because you've been using your brakes... Cheers Paul B. |

The front brake disc on my 2005 Triumph Bonneville was replaced under Triumph's warranty when it warped after about 10K miles.

Zitat von Bonzo im Beitrag #7 I won't lie, I haven't a clue. I'm the bike's second owner, and it came with a FBMWSH, and 2 year warranty. I can only assume that if the pads had been replaced before I bought it then they would have been fitted by the main dealer; I have no idea what brand BMW use. When it comes to replacing them I'll probably grab some Brembo pads (if I'm fitting Brembo after-market discs). Cheers Paul B. |
