Now out of all options out there, I jave settled with Meyle HD. 20k km later still ok. NVH is indeed slightly higher compared to new malaysia lemförder but really minimal.
Pros: 20k km still ok
Cons: NVH slightly higher
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 20000 km
I replaced the front pads and rotors on my F20 M135i yesterday. Same Brembo brakes as yours. I did a lot of research, and there isn't really "better" than stock for the same money. The only better option would be to upgrade to bigger brakes, but that would cost way more. I ended up going with Zimmerman Z-coat two piece rotors and ATE pads. The Zimmerman rotors are the slotted and dimpled versions. BMW calls that the M Performance rotors as OE. They're the same size - 340mm. They reportedly don't give much of a performance increase, but they weigh about 8% less than standard discs. All together with the hardware (guide pins, caliper bolts, etc) was about £500 with shipping from Spareto.
Pros: 8% lighter, slotted and dimpled
Cons: no performance increase

I’ve been using castrol edge euro 0w-40 for years and loved it. Seems to be discontinued, can’t find it anymore. That sucks, moving to mobil 1 euro 0w-40.
Pros: loved it
Cons: seems discontinued

Not on a sledged up engine but I’ve used it with success on my high-mileage BMW. Followed with Penzoil for a thousand miles or so.
Pros: used with success

Mileage: 1609 km
I have the Z3 rack in my 318is and I like the faster ratio because I drive it through small town Appalachia and these old, small, windy East Coast mountain roads.
Pros: faster ratio, good for windy roads

The crap-tastic mishimoto MMRAD-E36-92 that I use these days do come with a lifetime warranty and I send them photos of the leak and they just send me a replacement in a week or so. I have purchased 6 of them and replaced 2 under warranty. The "Z3" raditator won't fit as its too thick, but the Z3 IS and e36 so its confusing.
Pros: lifetime warranty, easy replacement
Cons: crap-tastic, pinhole leaks, poor welds, Z3 fitment issues
Vehicle:
BMW
Part number: MMRAD-E36-92

Daca esti dispus sa sacrifici un pic la an si fiabilitate ( oarecum ) te poti uita si la un bmw 118-120d cu mentiunea ca posibil sa fie “mai manarita” la banii aia si cu vesnica problema a distributiei.
Cons: probleme cu distribuția
