Good tutorial, but to the time indicated, you have to add the time to take out and put away the tools

Hello, thank you for this tutorial, For my part it is not a torx E16 key. but E18 (moreover in my torx key set, no 16),

Thanks to this tutorial I was able to do the operation. Thanks to the contributors!

I would add to be careful when inserting the piston, to press firmly on it and not in the center because there is a thin metal plate.

I put thread lock on the famous Torx screws which can be removed using the E16 socket.

Use a wire brush to push the socket in.
