The modern car is a product of more than a century of technological innovations. The modern car has evolved from an awkward-looking horseless buggy to a streamlined design that resembles a porpoise. The modern car is a combination of artistic expression as well as engineering ingenuity. The car is indeed a fascinating specimen of human creativity.

The convenient simplicity of driving a car and its sleek external appearance belies the complexity of its mechanisms. The car is actually like an organism that is composed of many systems. These systems include engine system, safety system, electronics system, and brake system just to mention a few. Every system has a distinct function and specific parts. The brake system, for instance, is comprised of the brake pedal, hydraulic transmission, caliper, brake pads, brake spring, and brake disc.

The brake disc should not be confused as distinct from brake rotors. Brake disc is actually the British term for brake rotor which is an American term. The Britons and the Americans sometimes refer to the same thing using different names. For instance, the British flat is the same with the American apartment or the British lift is the same with the American elevator. The language difference does not end with common everyday terms. The brake rotors are connected directly to the wheels and to the axle. The brake disc is the main heat absorber of a car brake system. The brake disc is usually manufactured out of metal alloys such as titanium or ceramic. The brake disc acts against the brake pads to slow down or stop the spinning of the wheel. The brake disc, however, is sometimes the cause of some common problems in braking. One problem that a defective brake disc may cause is locking. This happens when too much heat is generated from the friction of the braking action. The heat causes the metal of the disc to expand or warp. In some instances, an unaligned disc may result to vibration at high speed.

The BMW Corporation (acronym for Bavarian Motor Works) is one of the most prestigious and oldest manufacturers of cars. The BMW Corporation dates back to 1913. Hence, the BMW brake system is one of the most advanced and reliable brake systems among other car models. The general design and alloy composition of the BMW brake system are impressive and innovative.
