BMW X3 Rear Brake Pad & Rotor Replacement DIY (BMW E83)

►While the front brakes do most of the braking, the rear brakes are still a major component of the braking system. Ensuring your brake pads and rotor are critical to your safety and those around you. Knowing when to change your brakes isn't as tricky as it may seem, as they'll actually let you know when it's time. You can see the wear when the rotor has miscolored spots, deep groves, or a significant lip on the outer edge. You can also be sure they need replacement if you're experiencing brake squeal or the rear of your car shuddering under braking. Replacement of your BMW X3's rear brakes couldn't be more straightforward and is a job that nearly anyone can tackle in their garage or driveway at home. It requires minimal special tools, all of which are outlined in the intro of this video.
