In Reply to: what about front brake caliper upgrades? posted by Thomas on May 23, 2001 at 10:39:31:

Thomas,

I can think of no better daily driver than our beloved M5s. As long as you are prepared to spend the money to maintain them.

The stock front rebuild kit is part number 34-11-1-158-692. The dealer list price is $39.25.

As Rob posted, they are very easy to rebuild. You will only need a few "C" clamps, a block of wood, clean rags and a compressed air source. As the instructions stress, be careful though. If you haven't done calipers before, you can't imagine the force of a stuck piston when it finally let's loose.

Good luck!
