Front & Rear brake disc removal

Hi Guys,
I need to change the Discs (all 4) the front are upgraded to Brembo. ANY KNOWN PROBS when doing it?
It's a 2009 RRS 2.7 V6 Auto.
Thanks.

should be very simply as I did mine recently. I would say the trickiest part was removing the caliper carrier bolts. Spray a little wd40 on them. and remember to replace the carrier bolts with new ones! I broke one of mine when I went to tighten it again. only cost about a tenner for all 8 from advance factors.

oh yes, you'll need new pads when you replace the discs.

oh yes now I remember, when you replace your pads you also have to push the caliper pistons in to make way for the thicker pads. on the front brembos this is simple, but for the rear TRW calipers it's a pain in the rear end (although I managed it and I'm far from being a mechanic!) Recently bought a 2007 RRS HSE TDV6 for a Pimp-My-Ride-Project.
DONE: Meduza front bumper, AB rear bumper, AB tailpipes, calipers repainted, rear upper tailgate upgrade, side steps, AB front grille, AB side vents, rear LED lights, clear side repeaters, integrated daytime running lights, LED headlights.
TO DO: color code sills and pillars.

Pretty straight forward. The brake bible doesn't cover the brembo fronts, but they're pretty simple if you follow the same principles. Thumbs Up Bodsys Brake Bible
