1985 M635csi - 93,000 mls.

I have just had my M6's brake shimmy sorted out. It has been an expensive experience as I have my car serviced by Munich Legend's. The discs yiou mentioned , yes they are modified 850i discs. The previous set were also these modified discs and have lasted approx 3Years / 15 - 20,000 mls. The cost of the discs is a whopping £105.00 each disc!!.
In addition to the replacement discs I also (allegedly)required some replacement suspension components which were also expensive. As i had quite a bit of other work carried out I do not know the precise cost to rectify the "brake shimmy" problem.

I will be interested in finding out who else can supply the discs once they have been modified as I expect that they will still be replaced on a regular basis.

Regards

Casper
