everything here looks really straight forward, but i'm just confused as to what to do with the sensor. My warning lights have come on but I'm unsure as to how to reinstall the sensor, I dont know where the sensor wires go?
@kotafey..It's to make removing and replacing the wheel back easier. Porsche uses a Bolt instead of wheel nut.
@ASALMS17..If you change your pads early enough without wearing the sensors all the way down to trigger the brake service light, then you won't have too.
I lever the pistons back while the old pads are still in. It's much easier like this as when you push one piston another pops out! - I think a screwdriver tip could nick the piston rubber gaiter, so no sense in risking it. I put a smear of copper grease on the backs of pads to stop squeal and a smear on the retainer pin as it saves me - or someone else, time.
Thanks for the vid!
Was this on a V6 Cayenne?

it seems you have a bad habit of not pre-fasten with you hand. laziness will cost you.

Sorry for being a newb, but what is that long thing you use for one of the wheel nuts? Is that for the locking wheel nut?

whenever you change pads, do you also have to replace the sensor or can you just use the same old one?

will it damage the piston if we push in the piston like that?
