Installation instructions for ATE 24.0136-0106.2

1. Replace brake discs in pairs to ensure balanced braking performance on both sides of the vehicle.
2. Remove the wheels and the calliper. Support the calliper to avoid tension on the brake hose.
3. Remove the old disc: loosen the retaining screw. If it is seized, gently tap it with a rubber mallet.
4. Thoroughly clean the hub of rust and dirt before installing the new disc.
5. Install the new disc and brake pads, then tighten the retaining screw and calliper bolts.
6. Once installed, press the brake pedal several times and check whether the brake fluid level is sufficient.
7. Bedding-in: perform 5–10 gentle braking cycles from 80 to 30 km/h to allow an even friction layer to form.

Do the brake pads need to be replaced at the same time as the ATE 24.0136-0106.2 Brake Disc?

Yes, it is recommended to replace the brake pads when installing new brake discs. This ensures optimal surface contact and consistent braking performance, especially important with the two-part disc design.

Is the ATE 24.0136-0106.2 Brake Disc ventilated or solid?

This brake disc is ventilated with a two-part design. The internal cooling channel design and two-part construction improve heat dissipation significantly and prevent overheating during repeated heavy braking.

How should new brake discs be properly bedded in?

During the first 300 km, perform moderate braking and avoid full stops. This helps a uniform friction layer to form on the braking surfaces, supporting smoother operation and longer disc and pad life.

What is the outer diameter and thickness of this brake disc?

The outer diameter is 348.0 mm with a thickness of 36.0 mm – specifically designed for BMW 5 Series and 6 Series vehicles requiring enhanced braking performance.

Is this brake disc suitable for vehicles with ABS?

Yes, the ATE 24.0136-0106.2 Brake Disc is compatible with vehicles equipped with ABS and DSC systems. The disc design and specifications meet all requirements for modern electronic braking systems.

Do I need special tools to install the ATE brake disc?

No, no special tools are required for installation. Standard Torx and socket wrenches are sufficient. However, a torque wrench is essential for ensuring the proper bolt tightening torque.

What are the advantages of the ATE 24.0136-0106.2 Brake Disc compared to other models?

The two-part ventilated design offers superior heat dissipation, reduced weight, and improved braking consistency. The 348 mm diameter provides excellent stopping power for BMW's performance vehicles whilst maintaining durability.

Can I use the ATE 24.0136-0106.2 for track driving?

Yes, the ventilated two-part design makes this brake disc suitable for spirited driving and occasional track use. For intensive circuit driving, dedicated track pads are recommended, along with proper cooling between sessions and monitoring of disc temperature

What is the bolt pattern specification for this brake disc?

The brake disc features a 5x120.0 bolt pattern, which is the standard configuration for BMW 5 Series E60/E61 and 6 Series E63/E64 models.

How long do ATE brake discs typically last?

With proper maintenance and driving habits, the ATE 24.0136-0106.2 brake disc typically lasts 60,000-80,000 km, though this can vary based on driving conditions and brake pad quality.
