Dot 3 and Dot 4 Brake fluids are recommended by most vehicle manufacturers and are a glycol based fluid that has similar characteristics to antifreeze. The Dot 5 Brake fluid is a silicone based fluid that is not compatible with many OE brake systems. You need to make sure you refer to the BMW manufacturer’s recommendations when adding or flushing brake fluid. Today’s BMW's have very complex brake systems and most on the road today have ABS systems that are very sensitive to the types of fluid used in the 320 braking system. Adding the incorrect type of fluid could cost you thousands in BMW 320 brake system repairs.

The BMW 320 brake shoes do need replacing about every 50K miles or so. When replacing the BMW 320 brake shoes be sure to check the hardware and the wheel cylinders for damage or leakage. This is also a good time to check the brake drums for scoring or unusual wear. The BMW 320 brake shoes come in a primary and a secondary shoe that needs to be replaced in the exact location that they were removed from.
Leaking BMW 320 wheel cylinders are the number one cause of brake system failures on BMW's equipped with rear drum brakes. The o-rings on the BMW 320 wheel cylinder pistons wear out over time and let the brake fluid seep thru to the outside of the cylinder. The wheel cylinder boot usually traps a small amount of fluid before it contaminates the entire rear brake assembly.
