Hi,

The directions I provide will be for brake pad and rotor replacement. If the rotors are good, just ignore that portion of the directions.

First, here is a link that shows in general how it is done. I like adding this link as a reference for people to follow.

Here are the directions from the manual. Basically, the directions are in pic 1. This is the reason I like adding the link above.
