    How often brake pads needs to be inspected - every 2 yrs or 30k?

    I did my fronts @ 30K, Fronts & Rears @ 60K and I did Brembo pads With Stoptech rotors the 2nd time around. Now @ 92K looks like I still have about half life left on the pads.

    Thanks for the pointers guys, I'll have to see what I can do because I know Mechanics and people of the sort usually don't like to be told How to Do their Job. (lol2)

    Agreed, however (five-0) here are a Pain in the A#@ and I won't be the Only driver (my wife and mother will drive the 5 too occasionally) and I want to save them the Hassle.

    Another Anti-minivan, Ford Transit Connect

    Please Don't get me wrong, I kinda like Ford (for the most Part) but this "tool Box" looking thing with No Handle on top I think will be just another nail in their coffin.

    Got Lucky... Again!

    5X120 (BMW) to 5X114.3 pattern could be a pain in the rear.(naughty) Plus my E39 540i's offset is only like 10 to 20mm's. only. Keep that in mind. Other than that, great deal. (2thumbs)

    I was wondering how long it would take some one to notice that. (lol2) That badge is actually an OEM item from a Toyota Avalon that I purchased online. I also fitted the 5 with a set of 5000K H.I.D. already= Not a whole lot brighter IMO, but looks a thousand times better. (cheers)

But Friday night I opened up Cars.com before I went to bed and this One was just posted with (All of it's) 1,400Mi. LOL. And all the Extras. So I told...
