Removing Front & Rear Break Calipers 997.1 S

[slahti]

I have been looking all around for a DIY on removing the break calipers. My 06 997.1S needs some love, so I want to take them off, clean and re-paint them. I did my own pads last month, but don't know how to fully remove the complete calipers could someone point me in the right direction please.

:thankyou:

Remove the bolts from the calipers and carefully hang them to the side (no pressure on lines - do not let them hang from the lines).

Remove the Phillips head screw from the disc and pull the disc off. On the rear you may need to to relieve the rear parking brake tension through the adjusters.

I did mine last Spring. I purchased the caliper paint from TireRack and left the calipers attached to the wheel.

They look great...I did mine last summer and after I applied the PORSCHE decal I used 2 coats of clear high temp spray from PEP boys to seal the decals onto the calipers paint.
