Anyone know how difficult is to change the brake pads on the 6 series? I've done a few brake pad jobs on other car's but not these car. These oem pads have way too much brake DUST, and it must go ASAP! Thanks

sorry mate , not 100% on how to do it , but a friend says he done his with minimum tools and it only took about half hour. so i cant imagine it that tricky. i take it you do know there is only 1 brake pad sensor per axle. so dont go buying 2 if your only doing the front pads.
i was looking into doing my pads . are you looking at the ebc low dust pads ? if so let me know how you find them. i was wondering if the "low dust " is just another selling gimmick or if it actually does make a diference?
cheers

Oem pads are junk. Those thing create way too much dust,and It's not fun cleaning your wheels everyday. The EBC's are a lot better than oem pads.I have the same on my CLK55 and have no complaints.

I wouldn't trust this to some eBay pads, dust or not.
