I'm considering Z23 series pads from Power Stop. The downside to this is you have to use the F10 M5 pad on the front which is a bit smaller. There's at least one other forum member with that setup but can't remember his name and on my phone so am not going to search.

There is a service bulletin for the brakes. You can get rotors and brake pads free of charge at the stealer👍🏻 night and day difference if your car is making a lot of noise under braking.

Mixed results. Doesn't always solve the squealing for everyone

not hard to find....here is their selection for the X6M (same brakes as the X5M)
https://www.hawkperformance.com/part...B%5D=brakePads You can buy them several places online, including summit racing, ECS, and even Amazon. Just confirm the part number on Hawk's site and search for it. There was also a forum member selling the Hawk HPS (not ceramic) set a bit ago: https://f15.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1650244

Guys make sure your dealer has an m technician perform the service and that they have all the parts. The results should be significant. The dealer wants you to think otherwise but it is really not the case.

If you guys get it done please share your results. I had mine done on an 18 x6m and the difference is night and day. |

There are pros and cons to aftermarket pads, The Hawk pads are quieter and have significantly less dust. The tradeoff is initial bite of the pads. In my case, my dealer was not willing to do anything about my noisy brakes as "you already have the revised pads" but you should give it a shot with your dealer. |
