Hey folks,

So I just upgraded my pads and rotors, and now I have a caliper that is (semi) stuck and needs replacing. No problem, right? Well, there appears to be a complete lack of aftermarket for them, and literally every single shop around me (Madison, WI) has nothing in stock and will have to order them from halfway around the country. The local BMW dealership here (the only one) wants $1,000 for PARTS. Not happening.

My question - I know the X1 shares a lot of components withe Mini (countryman, I think) so I'm curious if anyone knows if that includes the brakes as well? Also curious where some of you may have sourced your brake calipers instead of dealing with the stealership.

Thanks!
