Then tell me the reason why 5,6,7,x1/3/4/5/6 including M versions, everything in Mercedes and Audi(except R8) lineup, all have ugly floating sh1t...please
Because the Electronic Parking Brake and Service Brake are combined. The Open Floating Caliper allows the pads to cool down faster after spirited driving.
