I agree, u will find on the internet to drive hard and brake hard to bed in new brakes...that is total nonsense

The only ppl that do that are race cars as they need max performance from their brakes and they change te brakes after ever race.

Baby the brakes for break-in....apply light pressure (brake earlier at lights/stop signs) and slowly come to a stop. What you want is to smoothly even out the pad and rotor while applying the pad material on the rotor

Bmw should bed in the brakes at factory...less customer complains about noisy brakes imo
