Same - always worth doing when the bearings are due for renewal.

Well it's knackered on the bottom it seems, is it welded at the lower point or another bolt I couldn't see for the disc. How much is a replacement?

I take it the part no 34112282110 is the same for CSL as normal m3?

they are held on with 3 screws. Mine end up rustiunbg away around the screw so the screw head doesnt any longer clamp the plate to the hub behind.

if you jack up the car, take of the wheel and disc and add a thin lareg washer undernreath the faulty screw it will fix it for a year or two

Ah didn't realise there were more screws will take disc off then. Why they couldn't of designed it so the disc doesn't need to come off I will never know!

they designed it so the hub as well has to come off !

Be careful not to over-torque the screws - they're tiny.

I hope BM sacked the "Dust Shield Project Manager" for his or her idiocy.

Typical over engineering lol, will take disc off and try and repair for now. Put a bolt in the top so it's not rattling anymore.
