Hi everyone

Bit of a nightmare swapping pads on front right calliper. The bolt that holds the pads was completely rusted in place and, following various attempts to coax it round with a screwdriver and a lip I need a new calliper. 🥹😭

If I just buy a second hand calliper can I literally just swap them without having to bleed the system etc?

It’s a 2002 GS with Brembo BMW branded brakes.

Cheers
 
Replace and bleed. You will introduce air when you remove the old calliper so install the new one and tighten/fit everything then bleed it to purge the air.
