Anyone have a DIY for changing out Front Brake pads and Rotors on an ISx50?? Tried to look it up in the Search but found no results. Any info would definitely be appreciated.

depends... if your car is newer with less rust/dust, they should slide out once the caliper is off. Mine is 06 and has collected rust/dust and all my 4 rotors did not slide out immediately. I have to use the m-8 1.25 screw and thread the screw in and keep threading until the disc pops off like the 3rd link above.

It all depends on how hot you've had the brakes. If they've been very hot, the rotors will be corroded no matter what, AMHIK.
