Hopefully this thread doesn\'t turn into a playground tussle (
BMW replaced the rear pads on my 09 335i at 20K miles, and now they're doing it again at 44K miles. That seems very excessive to me, but I use the cruise control quite a lot and the cruise system utilizes the rear brakes to hold the speed constant. That's the only reason I can possibly think could cause rear brake wear that quickly.
