Default Tips for changing discs?
First time i'll change the F&R discs on my car.
Any special tools for removing them? Nothing on FSM.
Any tips?

Thanks

Easy on the rear. Easy on the front too, its just messy due to the wheel bearing which you should repack wth grease and also not over tighten

The service manual explains how to check the resistance of the bearing, but you did it with the wheel off

Its done up with very little torque. Very low. Something like 10nm, but you need to check the service manual
