Hardest part is pushing the calipers back, make sure you take the lid off your reservoir and make sure no fluid spills out.

Based on recent experience with my car, I would recommend cracking the bleed nipple before pushing the piston back, rather than forcing old fluid back up through the ABS module into the master cylinder - this can give rise to spongy or sinking pedal syndrome, that will need a T4 bleed to sort out. The Haynes and official Rover manuals recommend this method.

Good luck -let us know how you get on
