The pads on my 2019 Alltrack are wearing nicely as there is plenty of life left at 52,500 miles.
I can't say much towards your brakes since I have a G30. However, I was quoted $1850 for my front M Sport brakes. I ended up doing it myself for $900 in parts only. It's not very complicated.
I got quoted well over a grand to do all 4 brake pads at the dealer. I went to a local garage and they did it for half
Just for front brakes/rotors at my dealership they wanted $1,100. I found a shop that is highly rated and they got it done, plus an oil change, for $550. So half the dealership and an oil change to boot. I\u2019ll never go to the dealership again unless it\u2019s an electronics issue.
$930 at a local BMW expert shop. That's front and rear, pads and rotors.
My dealer charges about $1100 for rear brakes and rotors, and about $1200 for front brakes and rotors, so $2300ish total. I got all pads and rotors done at a local shop for about $1100, and transmission fluid (+ pan and filter) done for $750 at the same shop.
A common brake upgrade to the E34 5 series was to install E38 (7 series) brakes. Only downside is you also have to install larger wheels.
Welcome - get used to it, unfortunately!
My understanding is that the pads that bmw uses create a lot of brake dust because they are ‘soft’ to give a nice smooth pedal feel.
It’s almost as if spirited driving causes wear.
