1. If the sensors have not been worn through (causing a dash warning light) you can inspect them, clean them up and re-use them. I do not replace mine unless the wire has been worn through and they need it.

2. Never used this, but I did buy a Motive Power Bleeder and it's an excellent addition to your shop and you can do fluid flushes by yourself. BTW, don't use just any brake fluid. Research this too and get the right stuff. It doesn't have to be Porsche brand, but it needs to be as good or better than Porsche brand.

3. I bought a Bentley Boxster repair book that is very helpful, but if you search YouTube for "boxster brake pad change" and "boxster brake fluid change" you'll find what you need to do the job.

Swapping pads is super easy and bleeding brake lines is also super easy. It's just a very dirty job.
