Would like to do the rotors and pads myself. Any gotcha's? Special tools?
Thanks. 2002.

 

Pads:
My kate is a MCS 02... and the only thing i had to buy was a 6" C-clamp (for the pistons), all other parts availible in my garage.
It was not dificult at all, just alittle review on the how-to's availible here in NAM and done .

BTY: 2002 models dont have sensor.. at least mine didnt have any (may-02).

Good luck!!!

Thanks guys....I'm good to go.

 

Here's a gotcha....

Have someone apply the brakes while you break loose the torx bolt that holds the rotor on.

If you're doing the rears, you'll need a tool to turn and push the piston back in. The MINI tool is about $200. Harbor Freight sells one for about $20. You can retract the front pistons with a C-Clamp. If you're itching to prove a point, you CAN do the rears without the special tool, but trust me....it's a BARGAIN at $20!
