Replacing the front brake pads, have a few questions
I'm gearing up to replace my front brake pads (and a worn sensor) on my '07 328xi and would appreciate some quick advice.
Firstly, am I correct in understanding that there are only two brake pad sensors on the vehicle: one in the front and one in the rear? If so, will this suffice? http://www.amazon.com/Beck-Arnley-08...1&s=automotive Second, I'm having a little trouble deciding on replacement pads. Does anyone have any experience with either Textar or Akebono pads? Here are the two sets I'm considering: Akebono: http://www.amazon.com/Akebono-EUR106...ype=automotive Textar:http://www.amazon.com/Textar-W0133-1...1&s=automotive Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Go with akebono. They make a good reliable, inexpensive daily driver pad.

One sensor per axle.
