Purpose and compatibility

The presented brake caliper is designed for the front, left side of the vehicle, which is crucial for proper installation and balanced operation of the braking system. The design of the caliper is consistent with BMW's factory solutions for the X5 and X6 E70/E71 series, ensuring the component works seamlessly with the original brake discs, pads, and brake lines intended for these models.

The 60/30 designation refers to the caliper's design type and allows for the selection of the correct component relative to other system parts, which is essential when replacing a single side or the complete axle.

Technical and functional characteristics

The caliper is responsible for stable brake pad guidance and even distribution of braking force onto the disc, which translates into predictable vehicle behavior during emergency braking and daily use. The design, intended for heavier BMW SUVs, provides adequate body rigidity and resistance to thermal loads typical of intensive braking system operation.

As an item from the Brake pads category in our store, the caliper works with dedicated brake pad sets intended for the front axle, which facilitates the selection of a complete set of parts for a single service intervention.

Benefits of using an original BMW caliper

• Factory fitment to the hub, disc, and steering knuckle mounts specific to the BMW X5/X6 E70/E71.
• Consistent performance characteristics with the vehicle's stock braking system.
• Possibility to replace a single caliper on the left side without the need for system modifications.
• Maintenance of the original braking characteristics intended by the vehicle manufacturer.

Condition and service application

The item is offered as a used part, which helps reduce repair costs while maintaining the original BMW specification. This type of solution is particularly beneficial for post-accident repairs, replacing a caliper after guide pin seizure, or mechanical damage to the housing.

Before installation, standard service procedures are recommended: inspection of working surfaces, connection lines, and bleeding the system after installation. Replacing the caliper on the left side of the front axle should be performed in accordance with BMW service procedures, maintaining appropriate tightening torques and leak checks.

Selection and additional technical information

For proper caliper selection, it is recommended to use OEM markings and interchangeable part numbers, which are detailed in the product's technical specification. This facilitates verification of compatibility with the specific engine version and equipment level of the BMW X5 or X6.
