    When and how much to replace brake pads on Z4?

    Z4 sDrive 18i - brake pad replace warning light on after 21500 miles . At 16500 miles service Front Pads reported at 10mm OK, Rear pads reported at 6mm OK.

    Is it fair to assume that 5000 miles on after the service these Brake pads could now be worn down ?

    I was quoted by my main dealer £286.00 to replace rear pads only , does this seem right?!

    I wonder why no one responded to you.... I would check out all brake warning lights. Are you sure it's a "pad replace" light?, rather than a brake system light? It could be telling you you're low on fluid, which is very easy to check. If you add fluid and it happens again, it's time for a visit to the shop. And that seems like a high price for rear pads only, but dealers are always high. I'd find a shop with a good reputation for working on BMWs.
