Hello first post, I have a couple questions about servicing the brakes as I plan to do this in a couple months. Are the front caliper female torx 20mm confirmed? I don't have this socket and want to purchase it ahead of time. What are the torque specs for the 40mm torx pad pins and the female 20mm main caliper bolts?
Any special tools needed to remove the rear calipers as I cannot find any information online. Torque specs required for the rear?
I have read on here that these vehicles are now able to retract the pistons in service mode. Am i correct? I plan on putting wheel chocks at each wheel. If I am able to retract the pistons in service mode will this completely disable the parking brake from enabling or will I stil have to remove the power plug to it as soon as I remove the wheel? I have torque wrenches and aluminum paste and I will not use brake cleaner on the calipers. Thanks for any input or links to perform these tasks in advance! cheers!!
