You need to remove the carrier here as the disks are so big .You need a 21 mm socket with a long breaker bar the carrier bolts are ridiculously 150nm torqued up .Turn the steering wheel to get the bar length in .I split a socket at first so went and bought a much stronger impact wrench one guaranteed not to split .

Now return the EPB motor simply reverse the polarity and hear it wind up for 8 secs or so.
Then back it off for 1 sec because the hand brake was off before starting .

Clean up the hub , apply a thin layer of copper slip anti cease ( for the next guy ) It’s important you really wire brush it up so the new disk fits true .

There is a alloy retaining screw to orientate the disk holes with the hub holes .It’s actually simply the wheel lugs that as well as holding the wheel on , hold the disk on .Theses were ceased and chewed up with any force .Even with an impact drive shown .

because the motors been backed off you can get  a conventional piston retractor in to retract the piston .You may have to remove the “ Bentley “ decorative alloy name plate 4 x hex screws .The new disk will be thicker so this this is important.

It takes 6/8 seconds to open do it with the calipers on so if it stops after 1 sec , you can reverse the polarity to open .
