Bosch BP918 front brake pad for the 2011-2016 BMW Z4 6-cylinder 3.0L and other vehicles grips the front rotors to slow and stop the car. This disc brake pad set uses a semi-metallic friction material bonded to the backing plate.
- Bosch QuietCast line, focused on quiet performance and low brake dust
- Patented copper-free friction formula with an advanced aerospace alloy, compliant with 2025 Copper Free legislation
- Pre-attached multilayer rubber core shims bond rubber to steel for lower noise, added strength and corrosion resistance
- PTFE and rubber coated hardware cuts vibration and noise and keeps the pads from binding to the caliper
- Powder-coated backing plate resists rust and corrosion to increase brake pad life
- Protective transfer layer helps extend pad and rotor life
Quick facts

- Also called: disc brake pad set
- Fits: 2011-2016 BMW Z4 6-cylinder 3.0L and other vehicles

Front brake pads lose friction material with every stop. Squealing or grinding when you brake, a longer stopping distance or pads that look thin during a brake service can mean they are worn. A sticking caliper, a worn rotor or a seized slide pin can be behind those signs as well, so pin down the cause before you order.
Fits
The vehicles it fits include the 2011-2016 BMW Z4 6-cylinder 3.0L, the 2008-2013 BMW M3 and the 2011 BMW 1 Series M, and one set of four pads covers the front axle on each.
