I have a 2013 335i m sport with 18" staggered fit rims. My front calipers are silver/grey color. The rear look like standard calipers.....it has 0Z3B performance power package, 0337 M-SPORT package, 02VF Adaptive M Suspension ....how do i tell what brakes it has. Do i need to measure the rotors to tell ?? Or will the vin tell me?

If your rear brake caliper has only one piston (looks like the following drawing), then you have the normal brakes with 340x30mm rotor front and 330x20mm in the rear http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/show...diagId=34_1969 If your rear brake caliper has two pistons (looks like the following drawing), then you have the S2NHA Sport Brakes option with 370x30mm rotor front and 345x24mm in the rear http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/show...diagId=34_2033

oceanview,
Thank you for clearing that up for me. Are the rear calipers interchangeable or stick with what it got ? They work great but squeal a little sometimes. The dealer i bought it from did a pad slap on the front and nothing to the rear....amazing... its a certified car with a pitted windshield and groves around the edge of the rotors. But we love the car. |

Well in theory you could change the rear caliper from a one piston to a two piston system.
But you would also have to change the rear rotors, the brake pads, the dust cover. Even more you should then also change the front rotor size as I wrote. Finally you would have a 370/345mm front/rear Sport Brake. Just changing the rear breaks to a better one, could result in over braking on the rear axle, which is very very bad. Don't play around with the overall brake setup! Just install a proofed "system" setup! Anyhow, if your rear brake is noisy, a good dealer should be able to fix it. i.e. Plan the rotor and install a set of new pads.

I think I have the same setup as OU812MACH-1 and wanted to make sure this would fit my setup: http://www.ebay.com/itm/F32-F33-4-Se...-/181366935989
I have the 18 inch 400m wheels night and plan to upgrade to the 403m wheels and tires eventually. |

If you would like to install the M Performance Brake Kit, yes 400M wheels will fit and so will 403M (400M is my winter setup) Don't forget, the Kit does not include the rear rotors. (See drawing) http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/show...diagId=34_2051 You need to order them separate. 34206797600 (order two pieces)

Hi Guys,
I read every single post here, and checked every links and read them but still have Q's since I drive a 3.18i LCI: I'm going to pay for that brakes: 340x30 mm front disks ( 34116792223 ) + 4 Piston M sport calipers ( 34116799465 & 34116799466 ) My Q; I have a LCI 3.18i F30, I believe they are the same as pre-facelift F30 3.16i and uses the same parts? So is it going to be a plug & play or do I have to change the brake lines or brake pumps or anything else? I'm very stressed here, so any help would be appraciate, A LOT! Because they are not cheap! And its written in the description, they will fit to: BMW 1er F20 F21 114d 116d 118d 118dX 120d 120dX 125d BMW 1er F20 114i 116i 118i 125i M135i M135iX BMW 3er F30 F31 316d B47 N47N 318d 318dX 320d 320dX BMW 3er F30 F31 316i 320i 320iX BMW 4er F32 418d 420d B47 N47N 420dX B47 N47N 420i 420iX BMW 4er F33 420d B47 N47N 420i 425d BMW 4er F36 418d B47 N47N 420d B47 N47N 420dX B47 N47N BMW 4er F36 418i 420i 420iX And my current discs are; Original Brakes Variant 1: Front rotor: 300x22mm (Millimeter) / Brake Caliper with 1 piston Rear rotor: 300x20mm / Brake Caliper with 1 piston It seems its going to fit but I can not bu sure indeed I gave al the information, now scene is ready for GURUS Thanks a lot guys PS Is it a dangerous situation if I only upgrade the front discs & calipers? ? Cheers

It's not dangerous, but could cause uneven braking power. I see no safety risk so far. However it is not the recommended setup as ABS/DSC could act a bit different. It is dangerous if the rear brakes have more power then the front brakes. The Europe Version of 328i/328iX have 330mm front and also 300mm rear. The 340mm with 4 piston calipers could have a better bite, but not so big of a difference. Brake pipes and pad wear sensor are the same.

This post is absolutely amazing! I just picked up a 2013 328i and am very interesting in upgrading the braking system. Is there a particular resource for sourcing the retrofit kit spelled out by the RealOEM.com website or is it best to take this number (in my case 34112221445) to my local BMW dealership to obtain an estimate? Sorry for all the questions, this is my first BMW.
Thanks, Shawn |

http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/show...diagId=34_2051 Additionally order the rear disc 2x 34206797598 (as listed on that side as well) Brakes need to be re-coded! And don't forget! 18" or bigger wheels will be needed (possible wheels are listed on that page as well. If you have aftermarket wheels you should verify that they clear the caliper!) Go for it!

I can hear my bank account crying as I type this...
I checked quickly with a local dealer and found that the yellow kit is nearly $700 cheaper than the orange or red. Kind or surprising, but honestly yellow was my preference anyway. Decisions, decisions... |

I just wanted to share that I have the 4 pot 340mm in front and 2 pot 345mm in the rear and was DCC coded. I have this set up for a year with no problems whatsoever. Daily use, spirited use or hard braking and the brakes perform great. As far as I know, this set up is also on M135i/M235i right. |

340mm or even 370mm front rotors combined with the 4 piston caliper and 345mm rear with 2 piston caliper are a complete different brake story then the cheap entry setup you get i.e. on a 320i. Looking under the hood, or in this case, behind the wheels, show where BMW saves production cost. Well even Jaguar F-Type comes with a front 2-piston and rear 1-piston caliper brake. Good luck on the track!

Just a fyi, in case it has not been mentioned. The yellow m performance kit is heavily discounted compare to the red and orange kits. Without rear rotors can be had for low $1200 (new, not used). Just google the part number, 34112221446.

Good to know, I just checked and the red and oranges normally runs $2300 and yellow $1610 at dealership. Non dealer can be found at $1850/ $1250 so yes $700 less for yellow with our $500 for the rear rotors. Mmmmm that makes me think it twice. Not sure how will look yellow on Glacier Silver with 403m wheels. I got a quote from my dealer for red one at $3k out off the door. I guess will tell them to deduct $700. Not quite sure.
