For your 09 GS/RS, this series of videos might help out with a few things for you, although the oil change video will not cover your HCM filter. Rear brake is video #10. And take note, compress the brake cylinder with the C-clamp before you remove the old pads.

Unless you have signs of physical damage, or just want to upgrade, it is not necessary to replace the rotor when doing a standard brake job. And of course, to replace your rear rotor, the wheel needs to come off.

After that, removing the rotor is self explanatory.
Thank you for these videos.....Very helpful !!
FYI,,,,,
I am thinkin the brake cylinder is a screw in type! Its is on mine anyway.....A c clamp will damage it. FYI...Mine is 2014.Might be different.
2013+ models use the Brembo brake system. Completely different animal. All he needs is a C-Clamp to compress the caliper pistons.Quote:
