2008 BMW 135i Brake Parts

Since 2008 Zimmermann is offering almost 400 Standard and almost 400 Sports Brake Discs in a coated version named Coat Z. The Zimmermann Coat-Z brake disc provides a protective coating that prevents rust and corrosion, extended rotor life and improved visual appearance. To improve the rust protection during storage and usage, Otto Zimmermann GmbH implements this new Coat-Z technology step by step in its production range. Beside the still optimum function of the brake disc, this coating ensures a consistent attractive appearance. Zimmermann brake discs are usually made of cast iron (with flake graphite) of different qualities; they correspond to the material used for the original spare parts. Therefore, the utilization of such materials (referred to as High Carbon by the competition) has always been a matter of course for Otto Zimmermann.

Product Features:

• Coat-Z protective anti-corrosion coating
• No formation of rust at the hub and herewith improved visual appearance
• Immediate functional capability without removal of the coating before mounting
• Excellent deceleration action and no distortion of friction ring at high temperatures
• Substantial weight saving and therefore less unsprung mass
• Floating mounting enables radial expansion of the brake disc under relatively heavy loads, thus preventing shielding and increasing resistance to heat cracks
• Hot spots prevented by optimized design of ventilation channels
• 1:1 exchange of original disc possible
• Not subject to registration: general ABE certification supplied with disc
• No conversion required for brake tuning

Rein OE Manufactured Brake Vacuum Pumps are produced in an OE factory to the specifications of the auto maker’s engineers! These brake vacuum pumps come complete with a mounting gasket or seal, depending on the application. Vacuum pumps are used in vehicles with engines that do not produce sufficient vacuum to provide power to the braking system, EGR valves, intake manifold switches, as well as turbocharger actuators and others. A failed or improperly working brake vacuum pump can lead to a reduction in braking power, a reduction in part and/or full load performance, a triggering of check engine light or limp mode, or engine misfires. All Rein brake vacuum pumps are manufactured by an OE manufacturer and are the exact same units that originally came on the vehicle!

Product Features:

• Ensures the proper operation of vehicle’s braking as well as all other vacuum dependent systems
• Engineered and manufactured by an OE manufacturer
• Plug and play replacement for original vacuum pump
• Applicable gasket included

PowerStop is on a mission to deliver an easy way for any driver to upgrade their brakes – no matter where or how they use their vehicle.

Caliper housing spring retaining clips are an essential component of ATE-designed fist floating brake calipers. The fist floating caliper consists of a holder and housing, which is located in rubber damping sleeves. It slides within the holder together with the outer brake pad while as the pad wears. To prevent the housing from lifting off the pad and causing noise issues, the caliper is pulled against the brake pad by the caliper housing spring retaining clip. These clips are exposed to continuous corrosion attack and should therefore also be replaced each time the brake pads are changed.

Product Features:

• Premium Original Equipment replacement
• Provides performance and dependability
• Manufactured to meet OE specifications

Schaeffler has played a crucial role in the development from mechanical to hydraulic clutch release systems. Over many years, Schaeffler has gained extensive expertise in the complete clutch release systems.

ATE supplies brake boosters in single or tandem versions and in all desired sizes and is one of the world’s leading OE suppliers of brake control and brake assist systems. The tie rod version, which is available for all designs, provides further weight reduction and additional optimized elongation characteristics. Front-bolt concepts on a tie-rod basis facilitate installation. Electric and mechanical brake assist systems, sensors for OHB, ACC, ESC, etc., as well as measures designed to optimize crash behavior complete the product portfolio. Brake assist systems are an important aid in emergency braking situations in which a driver needs to respond to an emergency situation, but does not apply the brakes with sufficient pressure. The brake assist recognizes the brake application speed to detect this type of panic situation, and activates the brake booster or the EBS hydraulic unit. Maximum braking is thus achieved although the force on the brake pedal is low – the shorter braking distance can even be life-saving.

Product Features:

• Original equipment (OE) quality
• Wide range of single and tandem Brake Boosters
• Unique tie-rod design meaning lighter and thinner parts for more efficient performance
• Most units are made of steel, but lightweight aluminium versions are also available.

CARDONE Master Cylinder Bench Bleeder Tool cuts typical bleeding procedures in half and is a more effective way to purge the brake system of air than other bleeding procedures. This handy, innovative tool is a must, just as bench bleeding is for removing all the air from your brake system, allowing you to spend less time in the garage, and more time on the road.

Product Features:

• Each unit is 100% new, providing consistent performance when servicing your brake system
• Easy to transfer for on-the-spot master cylinder bleeding
• Fluid measurements clearly displayed on each unit in both ounces and milliliters for convenience
