Lefty Loosey, if you were able to look at the bolts from behind the wheel, counter clockwise will remove them. Remember when Loctite is used, to "break" loose its hold it must be heated to 300 degrees, that or alot of elbow grease.

Last week the last rotor was completed. All are torqued according to specs and other than a bit mushy (I need to bleed bakes), all is good. :-)

The youtube vids helped a lot, this really shouldn't be any different than any other brakes I've done. Next thing is making 100% sure I'm ordering the correct rotors. That's my biggest worry is ordering everything and the rotors are wrong.

Pretttyyy sure they're 300mm, it's a 2005 3.0 Base. But, as brutal has pointed out before, Jaguar does some weird things sometimes. Even called my local dealer and they couldn't tell me for sure based on my VIN, last six is N40673.

RockAuto has about a million different options.

What should I order?? My brain is sore from searching.
