The Power Stop S3242 brake caliper pair is engineered specifically for the front brakes of select BMW models, including the 2006 325i and 325xi Base versions, as well as the 2007 328i and 328xi Base models. These performance brake calipers are designed to replace the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) calipers directly, ensuring a precise fit and reliable operation. Manufactured by PowerStop, a reputable brand known for its dedication to quality and innovation in braking systems, these calipers uphold the highest standards expected by automotive enthusiasts and professionals alike.
PowerStop’s brake calipers are meticulously remanufactured at their Chicago, IL facility, where each unit undergoes a comprehensive refurbishment process. This includes the application of an electrostatic high-temperature red powder coating that not only enhances the visual appeal behind stock or custom wheels but also provides superior resistance to rust and corrosion. This coating significantly extends the service life of the calipers, maintaining their performance and appearance under demanding conditions.
Each caliper is subjected to 100% pressure testing to verify piston functionality and to detect any potential leaks, ensuring safety and reliability. The assembly process incorporates new pistons, seals, slide pins where applicable, dust boots, bleeder screws, and stainless steel brake pad abutment clips. The use of high-temperature EPDM rubber dust boots combined with premium silicone lubricant facilitates smoother operation and durability, even under extreme temperature variations and heavy use.
