I apologize ahead of time if there is a thread/post on this already but I was unable to find anything specific...
My friend has an '02 325iT that I am going to help him change the brakes on here in a few days. I've ordered the parts for him already so no help needed there. What I need to know is if replacing the brakes (rotors, pads, and sensors) is dramatically different then on any other car and mainly by hunk of junk VW that I've changed them on already. Any special tools needed? Do the rear calipers have to be turned/rotated in or can they just be pressed. Any special bleeding of the brake lines needed? I'm no mechanic but replacing rotors and pads seems to be pretty easy.
Thanks for your help and I apologize for not owning a BMW...although my wife insists we will someday (maybe a 3 Series wagon with AWD).
