That said if you do have to replace pads and/or rotors, I recommend OEM parts. They work great for street use.
Yeah I'm sre its the pads, they're pretty low. I have 57k miles and they have been done before 3 times to be exact. And I was planning to get the m3 brake kit vs. A stoptech or brembo or wilwood bbk if I had to replace rotors. But I was planning on cool carbons or hawks if it was pads only. How do I know I should change the sensor too? And how would I know if I needa flush my old fluid out?

It really is. You can read up all you want about how to please a woman, you can look at all the diagrams in the world, but just like the clitoris, you won't know what the hell an apex is before you actually find it.
