Troubleshooting Brakes Issues on a BMW 3 Series

I have a 2016 BMW 3 Series and I'm experiencing some issues with my brakes. The brake pedal feels spongy and it takes longer for the car to come to a complete stop. What could be causing this problem and how can I fix it?

John, it sounds like you may have air in your brake lines. This can happen due to a leak or if the brakes haven't been bled regularly. I recommend taking your car to a certified mechanic to have them inspect and bleed your brake system. This should fix the issue and restore the proper braking feel.

I had a similar issue with my BMW 3 Series and it turned out to be a faulty brake master cylinder. It's responsible for distributing brake pressure to each wheel and if it's not working properly, it can cause spongy brakes. I suggest taking your car to a trusted mechanic to have it checked and replaced if necessary.

John, have you checked your brake pads and rotors? If they are worn out, it can cause the symptoms you described. I recommend checking the thickness of the pads and the condition of the rotors. If they are below the minimum specifications, they will need to be replaced.
