If u went to that point when sensor was touched, sensor has to be replaced as well. good luck, dont forget to lub the sliders and pins, make sure that the rubber pins protectors are in good shape, this will save u a lot of problems in the future...

I have my 2006 X5 brakes & rotors replaced at 28,000 KM. No kidding.

Dealer told me at 35K miles "rotors are shot". I did NOT replace them like he said they "needed to be replaced". At 50K I replaced the pads. At 100K I replaced the rotors (the ones that were "shot" 65,000 miles earlier) and the pads. If I recall a guy in Hawaii (hayaku I think) had a DIY post - first time I ever did it. 116K now, never had any problems.
