Product Details

DFC Friction designed this kit for drivers who need a direct brake service solution for BMW 540i, BMW 540i xDrive, BMW 840i xDrive, BMW 840i xDrive Gran Coupe, and BMW X7 applications listed below. The DFC Geospec rotor coating helps protect against corrosion while the machined surface and balance inspection support quiet, stable operation. The 5000 Advanced pads are formulated for controlled friction and consistent pedal response, while the included hardware addresses wear in the brake mounting components that can contribute to noise and uneven pad movement. Part number 4514-31155 is built around OE-style fitment and service requirements for these BMW platforms.

What This Brake Kit Helps Address

• Brake noise from worn pads or fatigued hardware
• Rotor rust and surface corrosion on exposed brake components
• Uneven braking feel caused by worn friction material
• Excessive caliper movement related to aged hardware
• Longer service time from rotors that require cleaning before installation
