Afternoon all ^^
Just been going through the thread and then venturing to the BMW site to confirm on the BMW M Performance Power Kit for 330d (without M Sport Brakes) at £1,249. Which their standard price that does not include fitting. Has anyone fitted this specific package (PPK + M Sport Brakes)? I ask this because I rang up my local BMW dealer (Gloucester) yesterday and was told this package (PPK + M Sport Brakes = £1249) does not come with the complete brakes system. The parts advisor said it only replaces the front brakes system and does not include the rear brake system? Can anyone shed light on this? Also I called up the Chletenham BMW dealer to confirm this and they said I did not have add the M Sport brake system??? Whats funny is Chelt BMW quoted £1310.54 for just the PPK + Labour. Whereas Glos BMW quoted all in £1450 for the PPK + M Sport Brakes (Fronts Only) + Labour. Im totally confused??? Can anyone enlighten me as to which dealer is telling the truth? |

Yes there are two PPK kits, one for cars with the 4 pot brakes the other for cars that don't have that option fitted.
The second kit comes with 4 pot brembo front callipers and rotors in addition to the standard PPK kit, to being the brake performance up. Does your car have the blue brakes? If not you need the kit that includes the front brake upgrade. |

Yes, theoretically you should ask BMW fs before making any modifications to the car. They can terminate their agreement if they find out, its in the small print.

I think in that case I'll upgrade the entire break system since I'm going to go on track days and planned road trip to brug ring next year ^^. Do you know which dealers are doing a package? Again, than you for you help |

I managed to get all 4 discs, all 4 calipers I needed for about £800 but then I had to buy some new pads/pins and brackets etc so currently I am around the £1000 mark. Plenty of caliper sets on ebay, most are removed from M135i's. Calipers will be fine to fit your car but you will need the right discs. If you need help PM me, as I have done alot of research and found out a lot of info from this situation. Also don't forget the blue front calipers come in either 340 or 370/380 sizes which will both need different discs depending on what you go for. |

Quick query!
I've found this spec sheet for 330d MPPK: http://www.matlawrence.com/images/bmw/powerkit.pdf It gives a part number for "with 18" M Sport brakes" and one without. Can I just check I'm reading this right? Where the part is described as "with 18" M Sport brakes", this is the part they should order if the car already has (comes *with*) these brakes? Or does this mean the part is supplied with those brakes? (For instance if the car doesn't have the M Sport + pack, and therefore more expensive.) For reference MPPK *with* brakes is 11 12 2 338 015; MPPK without is 11 12 2 347 695 Just want to make sure I'm not being charged the price for the kit with brakes on top, bearing in mind I've got the M Sport + kit with the 18" brakes included. The £ numbers I'm working on are based on part no. ...338 015, i.e. "with 18" M Sport brakes". Cheers in advance G (Forgive not rereading the whole thread again if this information is repeated elsewhere, but only got a couple of minutes between meetings, and I want to pull the trigger - if it's feasible - this afternoon!)

Stock brakes, i.e. single piston floating calipers, require an upgrade to twin piston fixed calipers on the front and larger/thicker discs. M Sport or M Performance brakes do not require an upgrade and the MPPK can be fitted as ECU + intercooler only.

Not sure why there's any confusion. There are two part numbers, one of which is MPPK without brakes. Check the dealer's quote - it should be <£1K inc VAT & fitting.

EDIT: Just looked again, "plenty torques" is actually only 560Nm. So that would still need upping to cater for the 600Nm the MPPK gives. Ijjit.

Don't know about a "grey brakes system" but if you have the M sport blue brakes you don't need a upgrade brake system and can just buy the intercooler and ECU.
Should be able to get the kit with out fitting for under 1k.. I did. |

Grey brakes on a 30d are the same on the SE and MSport. So, if you have grey brakes on a 30d you need a brake upgrade unfortunately.

Blue brakes are a factory option. The M Performance brakes are the same callipers, just different colours. Factory rotors are plain, M Performance rotors are dimpled from memory. The dealer fit upgrade is the M Performance calliper/rotor. Red, gold and orange from memory. Both 330d upgrade rotors are F370mm and R340mm from memory.
