I'm in the process of installing carbon ceramic brake rotors and pads on my 2023 5BW. I've ordered replacement caliper mounting bolts, since they are single-use, torque-to-yield.
11570092 - Front Disc Brake Caliper Bolt
11610905 - Disc Brake Caliper Bracket Mounting Bolt
I haven't been able to find the torque spec for these bolts. If anyone has that information, I'd love to have it.
Also, from what I understand, the front bolts come with loctite already installed but the rears do not. I recall reading that I should install red loctite on the rear bolts. Is that correct?
(I will post a thread about the CCBs after I get the project done and have some driving impressions. They are rotors and pads that are direct replacements for the iron brakes, so no need to get new calipers or knuckles or what-not. I ordered them from Khoa Nguyen. I've got everything installed, just awaiting the bolts, which should arrive today, so I can finish off the install.)
