Why Are My BMW G8x M2/M3/M4 Brakes So Noisy? We Have The Solution

BMW G8x M2/M3/M4 models are known for impressive braking performance, but also for excessive brake dust and low-speed squeal. We explain why the factory M Compound brakes behave this way, and why Race Technologies TS20 pads are our recommended solution for reducing noise and dust without sacrificing the performance expected from a BMW M car.

After 3 other BMW workshops couldn't fix the problem with my M3. SouthernBM sorted it. Excellent to deal with, great communication and customer service.

I Bought my M Performance Brake Kit here and installed today. I got my oil changed. Love the service as always. I only bring my cars to this place eventhough I live in the north side of Melbourne.

Fantastic customer service from the team at Southern BM. Expertly repaired my 2011 323i and did so without the attitude and excessive cost of a dealer. Thank you and I will be back for all future servicing.

I have used many mechanics over the years for the many different types of vehicles in our company fleet and southern BM is one of the very few workshops I can highly recommend. Andrew and his team are also really passionate about their work and it shows.

My first dealing with Southern BM was a pleasant one. I had some springs and shocks installed and Sean was a delight to deal with. Knowledgeable, helpful and offered solutions when not everything went to plan. I would happily recommend them.
