Wanted: Rotors/Pads/Sensors

Just looking to replace my brakes. Everything is worn down and with the car new to me I'd like to just change it all out. I'm also looking for recommendations. Not trying to go all out as I don't track the car at all. I was looking at the Zimmerman brake kit.

but are there only 3 brake pad sensors on the car? Confused me a bit.

If anyone has something to add for my consideration please share. Thanks everyone!

I just did brake DIY all four corners and ain't that bad. It's just pretty dirty! Only drivers rear has no sensor. I bought my parts at getbmwparts.com. Make sure to check your brake fluid level while pushing the piston caliper back coz mine overflowed! Good luck!

Definitely will do! I appreciate it. I have changed my rotors and pads on the old 09 335i, but I know they're not the same. I enjoy doing it though. Any special tools needed? I'll check out your DIY.
