BMW Repair: 2000 BMW brake pads and rotor replacement, bmw brake pads, torx bolts


Question
Can you tell me the procedure to change front pads and rotors?

Regards

Answer
jack up the car, remove the wheels, using a torx socket (can't remember which size) you would remove the two torx bolts holding the caliper on. Remove the wire connected to the brake pad and remove caliper. Replace the pads and rotors if necessary. Reinstall caliper and tighten torx bolts. Reinstall wheel. That is a qucik run down of how it is done. Replace rotors i say every two brake jobs or if groved by bad brake pads. you can cut rotors only once and get away with it. Hope this hleps. Let me know.
