How often should I change my BMW Z4's brake pads?​

I recently purchased a BMW Z4 and have heard varying opinions on when to change the brake pads. Some say every 20,000 miles, others say every 40,000 miles. How often should I actually change them and why?

It's important to regularly check the condition of your brake pads and replace them as needed. With normal driving, brake pads should typically be changed every 20,000-25,000 miles. However, this can vary depending on driving habits and road conditions. If you frequently drive in stop-and-go traffic or in mountainous areas, you may need to change your brake pads more often.
