Front and Rear Brake Rotors

The braking system on a 2024 BMW X3 relies on both front and rear rotors, but they perform different roles and experience different stresses. Front rotors typically handle more braking load because weight transfers forward under deceleration; as a result, they usually wear faster and are more likely to require resurfacing or replacement sooner. Rear rotors support stability, parking brake function, and balanced stopping, and they may show different wear patterns. At Richmond BMW in Richmond, VA, our technicians inspect runout, thickness, and surface condition for both axles to determine if resurfacing meets safety specs or if OEM replacement is required. Choosing dealer service means you get factory-recommended parts, calibrated torque values, and diagnostic checks that independent shops may skip—this reduces the chance of uneven wear, vibration, or costly follow-up repairs. Take advantage of our service specials and easy online booking to schedule service and keep your 2024 BMW X3 stopping predictably and safely.
