Non OEM Spares

[PedroB]

Hi all,

I've fairly recently bought an F31 330d and need a rear brake calliper. The car has the larger discs but not the full M-Sport blue callipers. I can't seem to find any spares online or with any of the usual, local independent motor factors that will fit. OEM from BMW is just shy of £300!

Can anyone recommend a decent supplier of good quality, but non OEM sprice spares?

Have you tried the likes of Brakes International?

What about eBay UK?

Get the part number of www.realoem.com and search using that

if you can live without your car for a few days, you could take the caliper off and send it to Bigg Red, who'll refurb it for you for about £100.

If you have the part No, you could try LLLParts, I have always found them to be quite good on price.

Callipers on both ends of axle should be identical. If you fit anything different from what's already on there you should fit new callipers to both sides of the car. Probably cheapest/easiest to fit one from BMW that matches.

That’s a poor quality Chinese job. Your local BMW dealer will sell a caliper.

The equivalent from LLLParts is £202.00 + postage, but it will be a genuine BMW part.:

Or stick the part number into eBay and it will come up with lots of options.
