FCP Euro is your best friend when it comes to European car maintenance:

fcpeuro.com 

They have Akebono pads there for all BMW models, just type in your vehicle's specs.


that it's another problem with my car it's a:
BMW 120i e87 2009, but many sites they only have 128i (coupe 3L)
in this site fcpeuro.com only appear that one ...
any other ?

check this one:
https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw-brake-pad-set-rear-328i-328xi-e92-eur1267
this one said 128i, will fit my 120i (2L) ?


after research both models:
BMW e87 120i rear brake pads:

http://bmwfans.info/parts-catalog/E87N/Europe/120i-N43/L-N/2009/browse/brakes/rear_brake_brake_pad_wear_sensor#pos_8

BMW e82 128i rear brake pads:
http://bmwfans.info/parts-catalog/E82/USA/128i-N52N/jun2009/browse/brakes/rear_brake_brake_pad_wear_sensor/#6774692_11

They are totally different, so were i can find Akebono pads for my bmw


@alex4179
Ok, so from my knowledge it should be the same brake pad for that E87 model. The 128i and 120i just differentiates between the engine types (120i has the 1.6l and the 128i has the 3.0l), but they're the same body and should have the same brakes. I'm just going off the 320i and 328i as an example...they both use the same brake pads. But to confirm this, I would call the dealership and ask for the brake pad part number for the 120i and compare it with the part number for the 128i. If they're the same, then you can get those Akebonos for the 128i and use it on yours (same part number = same pad = same fitment). I'm most certain they use the same brake pad because I can't seem to find brake pads specifically for the 120i (only 128i results come up). Good luck.

EDIT: I just saw what you posted...


Contact FCP Euro. They should help you out to find the right ones.
