Sources for brass caliper bushings

nsogiba · 05-10-2024, 08:46 AM

During a routine pad swap and brake bleed last night I noticed that there seemed to be a small but noticeable amount of movement between the fixed caliper bracket and the caliper itself at each wheel when a significant amount of pressure was applied to the brake. I am assuming the rubber caliper bushings have worn out after 81K miles and a half dozen HPDE weekends.

I see FCP offers a rear kit for the E92 M3 - anyone know if this is an OEM BMW part or aftermarket? I have a store credit with them so I'd like to buy there if possible.

Also, this seems to be the same kit - any reason to pay double elsewhere? I have a charge pipe from X-PH on my X5 and the quality was decent.
