DESCRIPTION
This complete brake service kit is designed to restore the braking feel, balance and confidence that made the BMW E46 330 such a benchmark driver’s car when it was new.
The E46 330’s reputation comes from more than just its engine and chassis — the braking system plays a huge role in how planted, responsive and confidence-inspiring these cars feel on the road. When pads and rotors wear out, that character is quickly lost. This kit brings it back, using a carefully matched combination of European-made OEM-Supplier rotors and Zimmermann brake pads, along with new wear sensors to finish the job properly.
OEM Supplier Front & Rear Brake Rotors
The rotors in this kit are manufactured in Italy by one of Europe’s specialist brake rotor producers and built to OE standards. Supplied to us in plain white boxes, they let you enjoy genuine European braking quality without paying for the branding or dealer markup.
Made from a high-carbon alloy for improved thermal stability, low vibration and smooth pedal feel, these rotors deliver the consistent, refined braking that suits the E46 platform so well. They are fully anti-corrosion coated to keep the hubs and edges clean behind the wheels and prevent the rust staining that cheaper uncoated discs quickly develop.
Zimmermann Front & Rear Brake Pads
The brake pads remain Zimmermann — one of the most respected names in European braking. These pads are designed to deliver strong, predictable stopping power with low noise and excellent pedal feel, making them ideal for daily driving and spirited road use alike.
Manufactured to ECE R90 standards, they provide factory-correct performance and compatibility with BMW’s braking system, ensuring smooth operation and long service life when paired with quality rotors.
Front & Rear Brake Pad Wear Sensors
New wear sensors are included for both front and rear. These are a single-use item that sits inside the pad and triggers the dashboard warning once the pads reach their minimum thickness — ensuring the system is reset properly and continues to work as intended.
If you want your E46 330 to brake the way BMW engineered it to — smooth, stable, quiet and confidence-inspiring — this complete kit offers a high-quality, European-made solution that restores the car’s original character without inflated dealer pricing.
HELPFUL TIPS
Often overlooked, brake fluid should be changed every two years at a minimum due to water absorption. We strongly recommend finishing your brake job with a flush using Motul's excellent DOT 5.1 brake fluid, found at the bottom of this page.PART NUMBERS
