Installing Hawk HPS (High Performance Street) brake pads on all four corners of my father's 2006 BMW E60 M5. We purchased the pads form Turner Motorsport. Check out E65Source / e65source
You can keep the old pad on the caliper when compressing the piston. Makes it easier as you have a bigger surface for the clamp to compress and it reduces the risk of hurting the piston.

Good video, as with all from E39Source. I will caution that when raising a car from the rear differential, be sure not to place the jack on the cooling fins, as those are not meant to support any kind of load. Position the jack ahead of the fins, instead. Other than that, nice work!

It's a REALLY good idea to clean the caliper pistons BEFORE you force them back into the calipers with the clamp. Your caliper pistons seals will thank you.

should be clamping the brake lines and bleeding the fluid out the bleed nipple when compressing the pistons otherwise it is possible to do damage to the seals in the master cylinder through back feeding , you could also make the reservoir overfill this way and have brake fluid eat out the paint down your firewall. when replacing pads properly with the nipple open it is recommended to do a small bleed at the same time . cheers

I belive they have 2 bolts on the bottom one for the oil pan and one more some where else. Im not sure but it would be great if you know anything about that and give me some feedback. You rock!

Slotted rotors wear pads faster and don't stop as well, its purely for looks. Drilled rotors remove surface material and also decrease stopping performance. They are only useful on the track to dissipate heat faster.

Per BMW the jacking point is the not the aluminum fin part but the black cast iron housing. The fins do protrude lower, that’s why a small block of wood is handy for this and prevent any marring.

I would replace the camshaft position sensors (all 4). There are two on each cylinder bank. An intake camshaft sensor, and an exhaust camshaft sensor. I'm sure there are good DIYs online. I only support two E60 M5s, and neither one of them need that job so I am not authorized to do it at this point.

Anything is possible if you're willing to spend the time and the money on it. However.. E39 brakes are quite good, and you can upgrade any E39 to the M5 brakes if you don't have an M5. Upgrading the 530i or below (anything but 540i) will require some other modifications like 18 inch or larger wheels.

You only need to replace the sensors if the the CHECK light came on in the car, meaning that the sensors did their job and were destroyed in order to tell you that you're out of pad material. Since we were replacing these pads simply to get rid of brake dust, the sensors were still good.

Your rotors look like complete shit, you should replace those as well. Recommended by factory to do both pads and rotord at the same time. But you can avoid the rotors by going with a ceramic brake pad, theyre usually pretty low on Dust. And for you that want No Dust, go with akebono's
