Need Brake Instruction Help

Can anyone please provide guidance, instructions or a link on how to remove and replace brake rotors on a 2001 TL? I have changed pad before but never rotors.

Thanks,
C

If you have changed pads on your car, there is not alot more to it then that.
Remove caliper as usual, remove pads, remove the two bolts holding the caliper bracket and remove it. Rremove the phillips head screw/s from the rotor, might have to use an impact driver to break those loose. Pull rotor off and thats it, do the opposite for install.
Good luck

yes thats about it with adding to make your life easier get a impact screw driver (not a air tool, you hit it with a hammer and it turns the screw while applying the force to keep it on the screw) other wise you will more than likely end up stripping the screw head out with out one
