    P.S.: According to Fuser from BMW Klub Polska a good idea to do is to cleaning up the caliper piston underneath its rubber boot with some brake cleaner and measuring the hub side stroke, because if it has a bigger side stroke, the brake discs will be destroyed soon. Also measuring the side stroke of the disc should have be done with all five screws tighten up half ways, not just two of them. I haven't done all that, so we'll see how it works out in the next couple thousand of kilometers. It may be I have to do another video on this (hopefully not :) Have a nice day and many thanks to Fuser
