On my 930, I rate changing pads a '2' on a scale of 1-10.

Simplified:

1. Jack the car.
2. Remove the wheel.
3. Use pliers to remove the spring.
4. Use screwdriver to gently push/pry piston back.
5. Remove old pad.
6. Insert new pad.
7. Replace spring.
8. Replace wheel.
9. Lower car.
10. Torque wheel.

Compared to all of my previous cars (BMW, Audi, VW, Honda, Acura, Toyota...) that required the removal of the caliper (messy PIA), changing the pads on my 930 is simple.

Try it, and we'll talk you through any issues!
