Brake Pad Replacement for Your BMW Alpina B7L xDrive
How often should you change your 2012 BMW Alpina B7L xDrive’s brake pads? It depends on you and your driving style. Brake pads often last 30,000 to 40,000 miles. Certain factors, like driving mostly on highways and braking smoothly, can help your brake pads last longer. Hauling heavy loads and riding your brakes can shorten brake pad lifespan. Your brake pad replacement timeline also depends on the type of brake pads you have installed on your Alpina B7L xDrive. Not all brake pads are created equally. Some materials last longer. Thankfully, when you get BMW Alpina B7L xDrive brake pad replacement at Firestone Complete Auto Care, you also get a limited Lifetime Parts Warranty.

BMW Alpina B7L xDrive Brake Repair
Your BMW Alpina B7L xDrive engine may be strong and reliable. One that's ready to get you to 200,000 miles and beyond. But if you can’t stop it, it’s as good as scrap metal. If you notice your brakes are squeaking or not working well, don’t wait! Unresponsive brakes make it tough to give the road your best. Plus, waiting can lead to more expensive parts wearing out and requiring replacement. For instance, rotors may start to warp when you drive on worn brake pads, and this metal-to-metal friction shortens the life of otherwise healthy brake components. We can help you steer clear of further brake damage. Visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for the right brake repair for your 2012 BMW Alpina B7L xDrive. We offer a variety of brake services like brake pad/shoe removal and replacement, rotor/drum resurfacing, brake fluid exchange/bleeding, and brake caliper and wheel cylinder service.

BMW Alpina B7L xDrive Brakes Questions
-
Why does my Alpina B7L xDrive shake when I brake? Feeling shaking or vibrating in your Alpina B7L xDrive as you brake might indicate a few different problems, including worn brake pads or rotors, loose suspension components, damaged brake calipers, or warped rotors. Book an appointment for a free brake inspection as soon as you notice a problem with your brakes.
-
What is the total number of brake pads on my Alpina B7L xDrive? 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 Alpina B7L xDrive to a stop, the front brake pads usually wear out sooner than the rear ones.
-
What is the average lifespan of Alpina B7L xDrive brake pads? Brake pads generally last between 30,000 and 40,000 miles. Your driving can affect how long your Alpina B7L xDrive 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.
-
Does brake fluid leak when the car is off? Your Alpina B7L xDrive has a closed hydraulic brake system, meaning you should not have a brake fluid leak under normal conditions. However, parts of your brake system can wear out over time or become damaged, which can lead to a brake fluid leak.
