Bob, next time you need a brake job done on that 740i, let me know.

You get the parts I tell you to, supply a ticket out, and I'll provide the labor, really cheap.

Ghost, Bob is really a decent guy, except he likes to talk until 11:30 or so, my time. (PM not AM.) :D

Skou,
you just stay there, you are too close to TX!!! Brakes, came out of Menards yesterday, a puddle of anti freeze under the "Ultimate POS Driving Machine", those Germans should take a lesson from those 10's designers, new radiator!!! Good thing it happened when it did, a road trip was planned for the weekend to pick up, you guessed it, another 10!!

Bob, our Founder, Hans Goldschmidt was born in, you guessed it, Germany!

My old boss, in Hawaii, her 735i, a set of pads would outlast 2 or 3 sets of rotors. Yes, the pads would outlast the rotors, using BMW (Broke My Wallet) parts. Found some aftermarket pads and rotors, and 25000 miles later, I could see the machining marks on the rotors.

Sorry, back then, BMW was making stuff for the "war machine." Hans left before that MUTT, adolph could get his GRIMY mitts on him. (Notice I didn't capitalize hitler's name, that wasn't accidental.)

(Oh, and I'm responding to a guy that lives in Germantown. He should know better! {But, he's got GOOD Beer.} Capitalized THAT one!) :D Yes I have, but only my first, tonight.
