I've bought some rear brake discs for my 996 4S, and fancy giving DIY fitting a go. I am not an experienced mechanic. Is it reasonably straightforward? I've watched the obligatory YouTube vids, it looks OK.
My concerns are...
-levering the pistons apart; can I cause damage doing this?
-that the screws holding the discs on will be seized
Anything else that can/will go wrong? Any tips?
Rather than taking off the caliper initially, can I have a go at the disc screws first, and if they are seized quietly put the wheel back on and take it to the indy?
Brake pads were changed not too long ago, so the pins etc should come apart OK.
