|  | | | BMW E46 Brake Hydraulics - Page 4 | Caliper Retaining Clip  | | This clip holds the brake pads in the caliper. It's always a good idea to replace retaining clips at the same time you replace brake pads - it's cheap insurance against possible catastrophic failure. |

| $12.50 | | Caliper Rebuild Grease | | Brake calipers can operate at greater than 1000 degrees Fahrenheit. When rebuilding your calipers, make sure that you use specially formulated grease that will not break down under the stress of the braking system. Place the grease on the side of the caliper away from the pads, to avoid having the grease be a collector of brake dust. Also helps to avoid caliper sticking, seizure, and rust when the car is sitting for long periods of time (winter storage). Brand may vary. |

| $6.75 | | Brake Booster | | The brake booster is a particularly expensive piece to replace. There is only one manufacturer of these, and they price them in the stratosphere. The good news is that these don't usually need to be replaced. Used on cars with power brakes, they use vacuum pressure from the engine to assist in the movement of the master cylinder. |
