Hi,

Replacing front brakes and rotors really isn't too hard. Under normal conditions, you can expect them to last approximately 25,000 miles. However, that can change based on driving habits and terrain.

To get you started, here is a link that shows in general how it is done. You can use this to help guide you in the process.

If you look at the attachments below, they include the directions and pics specific to your vehicle for replacement.

Also, here is a video of the procedure being done on a Saturn Vue. Although it is a different model vehicle, the procedure is very similar.

I hope this helps you. Let me know if you have other questions.

Take care,

Joe
