BMW Brake Job Cost: Pads, Rotors, Sensors
Owner prices for F30, F32 and F36 brake jobs in our data are per axle unless a row says all four. Book time is about 1 to 1.5 hours per axle, a DIY job takes 30 to 60 minutes per axle, and some dealers run value brake pricing that is worth checking. Replace the wear sensors if the warning has already triggered.
