Hi, i have a full set of pads on my car without the leads on for wear indicators,
where is best place to get some new ones from? BMW?

ECP and GSF sell the wear sensors, only a couple of quid, I don't think anyone sells the pads with the sensors complete.
320touring, the sensors are easy to bypass, just join the wires up, half a job way of doing it though!
Do it properly innit!

If I'm buying a car and see things like bypassed wear sensors, then I don't buy car, at least without a heavy discount. It shows a sloppy attitude to servicing, which is probably repeated throughout the car.

I agree Brian
If someone cant be arsed to deal with the sensors then what else have they skimped on????
Mine needs a new exhaust (looks original
)
