Our BMW-certified technicians use factory-recommended inspection methods and OEM replacement parts so your vehicle maintains its engineered performance and safety margins. Servicing your rotors at Plaza BMW means fast diagnostics, transparent pricing, and work backed by dealer warranties—repairs covered under warranty must be completed at a certified dealership to preserve coverage.

Front and Rear Brake Rotors

Front and rear rotors serve different loads and therefore wear differently on the 2026 BMW X7. The front rotors typically handle a larger share of braking force due to weight transfer during deceleration, meaning they often experience higher temperatures and faster wear. Rear rotors absorb less braking energy but remain critical for balance, ABS function, and parking brake performance. Plaza BMW technicians evaluate both axles for thickness, runout, and surface condition; replacing both pads and rotors when needed delivers even contact and eliminates vibration. We emphasize OEM components, precise machining, and torque specifications to protect wheel bearings and electronic brake systems.
