Hi guys ! I need a new front left caliper however when i try to buy one its not the right fixings to the carrier, the fixing my front calipers have are the same as the rear calipers with the slide bolts the caliper has BMW 48/22 stamped on it. I have managed to find a few calipers advertised as front calipers with the slide allen key fixings but not in the UK

Please Help !! Has someone put rear calipers on the front of my 325i ?

there are two types of front calipers ATE and Girling. these are slightly different so hence maybe why your thinking its rear caliper when your being show a different type.
