CAUTION: Do not allow brake fluid to come in contact with the painted surface of the vehicle body. If it does, wash off with water and wipe away completely.

  3. Remove the mounting bolts, and then remove the disc brake assembly.
    CAUTION:
    • Since the 17-inch (Brembo) caliper body is easily scratched and the paint may be stripped, protect it from being contacted with other parts or tools.
    • Do not allow brake fluid to come in contact with the painted surface of the vehicle body. If it does, wash off with water and wipe away completely.
    • Prepare a container to catch grease or oil, etc. If any grease or oil spills, wipe it off and clean immediately to prevent from penetrating into floor or flowing outside.
