BMW 535i GT Brake Pad Replacement

When should you change the brake pads on your 2011 BMW 535i GT? It depends on you and your driving style. In general, brake pads last from 30,000 to 40,000 miles. Factors like frequent highway driving and smooth braking can help your brake pads last longer. Alternatively, riding the brakes and hauling heavy loads can shorten their useful life. How often you need to replace your brake pads also depends on what kind you have on your 535i GT. Some brake pad materials last longer than others. Luckily, Firestone Complete Auto Care offers brake pad replacement for BMW 535i GTs that comes with a limited Lifetime Parts Warranty. We do brake checks and brake pad replacements every day, and for your 535i GT, we’ll only use parts that meet or surpass BMW’s standards.

Brake Repair for BMW 535i GT

You might have a strong and reliable engine in your BMW  535i GT. One that's ready to get you to 200,000 miles and beyond. But if you can't stop it, then it's scrap metal. If you notice your brakes are squeaking or not working well, don’t wait! Safe driving is difficult when your brakes are anything but their best. Plus, ignoring your brake problems can result in more damage and higher brake repair bills.

Answers to Your 535i GT Brakes Questions

  • Why is my 535i GT shaking as I brake? Faulty brake calipers, worn brake pads or rotors, loose or worn suspension parts, and warped rotors can cause your 535i GT to shake during braking. If you’re experiencing odd brake behavior, schedule a free brake inspection at a nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • How many brake pads are on my 535i GT? It’s common for vehicles to have four brake pads per axle — two on each front wheel and two on each back wheel. Since the front wheels tend to put in more work when bringing your 535i GT to a stop, the front brake pads usually wear out sooner than the rear ones.
  • How long should my 535i GT brake pads last? Brake pads generally last between 30,000 and 40,000 miles. Your driving can affect how long your 535i GT brake pads last, though. For example, mainly driving on highways and gradually braking can help increase the lifespan of your brake pads, and carrying hefty loads or riding your brakes can shorten it.
  • Should my 535i GT be leaking brake fluid when the car is off? Your 535i GT brake system is a closed hydraulic system, so a brake fluid leak likely means you have an issue in your brake system. Over time, brake components can wear out or get damaged, causing a brake fluid leak.
