R56 Front Brakes Sensor
How many brake wear sensors are needed on the front? I'm replacing pads and rotors on the front.

+1 one on the front left ( driver side). Just clip it back in location like the old one. I start clipping the old one out while clipping the new one so it follows the same exact location and bends / clips on the ABS and such.

It marked on the brake rotor set screw which I would replace whenever doing brakes as the old ones with corrode and stick. out a little anti-seize on the thread of a new one.

Torx head takes T50 size for install. 1 screws per rotor.
