To remove all components except for Brembo brakes, start by removing the cap from the brake fluid reservoir. Then, loosen the wheel lug nuts and raise the vehicle, supporting it securely on jackstands. Remove the wheels and inspect the brake disc. Use a C-clamp to push the piston back into its bore, making sure the fluid in the master cylinder doesn't overflow. Rotate the caliper away from the disc and remove the outer brake pad, followed by the inner pad. Inspect and replace the support plates if necessary, and lubricate the contact areas on the mounting bracket. For installation, apply anti-squeal compound to the new brake pads and rotate the piston on rear calipers. Install the inner pad with the brake wear sensor positioned correctly, then install the new outer pad. Clean and lubricate the caliper guide pins before installing them, and tighten the guide pin bolts to the specified torque. After completing the job, depress the brake pedal to bring the pads into contact with the disc and check the brake fluid level and operation of the brakes before normal use. For removal with Brembo brake pads, follow the same initial steps of removing the cap, loosening lug nuts, raising the vehicle, and removing the wheels. Inspect the brake disc and then use a punch and hammer to remove the lower caliper guide pin and pad retainer. Remove the upper caliper guide pin and push the caliper pistons back into their bores. Finally, remove the pads from the caliper. To install the new pads, clean the caliper assembly and then reverse the removal steps. After completing the installation, depress the brake pedal to bring the new pads into contact with the disc, check the brake fluid level, and carefully test the brake operation before normal use.
