Getting ready to replace front pads and rotors on my 2000 9-3. Everything I have seen says it is quite simple. Basically push the caliper back, pull the guide pins, remove and replace rotors, and button up. Now, a guy at work is telling me, that you shouldn't just push the calipers back on ABS, but crack the lines and bleed them as you push them back so you don't clog the orifice. Then refill fluid. I've never done this on other cars but it has been a while (about 8 years) since I have replaced pads and rotors Is he right? Wayne
