I am going thru the brake system on my 1982 400i, and want input for brake pads, who used what and how have they performed? Brake fluid dot 4, sylicone, synthetic? Thanks Howard Musolf 1982 400i Cabriolet 1981 308gtsi Maserati Spider
Howard I have ATE pads on my 400i and they are fine. I tried EBC Green Stuff to try to get rid of a terrible squealing noise (unsuccessfully!). I ended up having the calipers repaired, disks ground, and new hoses. Aidan
Almost anything else but sylicone brake fluid. You can not get a firm brake with sylicone, it always feels like you have air in the lines.
