    Binding front brake

    My CSL has started suffering from a binding front calliper, but only when warmed up it seems (no excessive braking or hard driving triggering it off). Is this a common issue & one that will be covered under warranty?

    I am fairly sure it is covered under warranty but cannot be bothered to research this for sure. I do not think that there have been that many instances. Not posted on here at least. However I do recall that some that have had this issue have only had one caliper and disc replaced. In an ideal world both should be replaced for perfect symmetry.

      Right I bothered my arse in the end:



      Getting both discs replaced seems a bit hit and miss.

        You could replace discs and pads but if the caliper is shoot it will bugger the new ones. I would get into BMW and check calipers first. Gd luck

          Had one caliper seize - covered under warranty.

          Tried to flog me new discs (pr) but had only just had some fitted !

          They backed off and just did the caliper.

          (for avoidance of doubt, this was NOT Elms)
