You have the option to lift one wheel at a time or lift all four wheels of your car.

You will need 13, 14, and 17 mm wrenches. If you have this kind of "flexible head ratchet", it will make the job easier.



I don't recommend using the ratchet for the "initial force" when applying torque as you loosen the bolt. There's a possibility that you might break the teeth of the gear.

Another thing, it is better, or should I say BEST, to use a six point wrench for 13 and 14 mm.

You will also need a bottle or two of brake cleaner. For the grease, I recommend using Permatex.



If you have teeny-weeny arms like me, you need this:



You might need this tool if ever you need to push back the brake piston.



If you have the electronic parking brake (EPB), you need first to enter "maintenance mode" before doing any brake job.

Once the rotor and caliper are exposed, you need to remove the bolt from the caliper sliding pin.
