It's that time and looking for recommendations for any upgraded replacement parts for front discs and pads for a 2013 E63.

Happy to use standard discs but lots of pad options out there so any good ones to use or anybto stay away from?

Just changed mine recently and, after lots of looking around and quizzing people, ended up with OEM pads. The EBC Yellow things were the closest I came to fitting but, even though they are allegedly better with dust, I stuck with the ones I knew.

I got a reasonable price from MB Grangemouth which included transport to my local Arnold Clarke dealership, though this is 20 miles away so not exactly cost effective. I mentioned to my local dealership that Grangemouth were offering a good discount and they price matched for me, so not too painful in the end. The fronts ended up at £172, the rears at £165, though these weren't price matched like the fronts as I did them on a whim as the car was already up in the air with the wheels off. MB Southend also offered a decent quote, though it worked out a little more expensive with postage.

Incidentally, my discs were fine at 25,000 miles so they can live to fight another day. smile

Thanks for the info mate. Quite often, std pads are good enough. I need replacement discs as well, car is on 45k.....
