But stones in the break system isn’t in that what did you expect category.
Nor would I consider not having stones stuck in the breaking system a ‘luxury’ or ‘comfort’ feature.

Well said. I totally agree as well.
It is not only the Z4 M40i that is affected. In the UK the same brakes are fitted to the 20i and 30i MSport variants of the G29 Z4. Furthermore, my local BMW Service Manager tells me that identical brakes are also fitted to the MSport Plus variants of the new G20 3 Series 318d, 320d, 320i and 330i as well as the M340i. Other than the M340i, I would not call any of these cars performance cars, they are regular road cars. Owners of these cars are very likely to experience the same issue. Only time will tell.
