Front passenger calliper stuck on last week.Managed to limp it to work as it was less than mile to go but went off on a low loader after that. Indi BMW specialist have got it off and can send the calliper off to re-condition the part for £80 less than a new one so going for that. First breakdown issue in 53,000 miles and under £300 to fix so not bad for a car that works hard. Just hoping things don't now come in 3's.

my front passenger calliper stuck on a few weeks ago although i didn't notice at first as it wasn't too bad. Local garage stripped and cleaned it for £60 not sure how long it will last but a BMW Indi quoted me around £200 to replace and fit
 
Mine did the same drivers side. Car felt awful like the wheel was going to come off. Fixed under warranty
