I recently changed my 6th gen brakes, lol after reading this thread.
It was really easy.
The steps above work good.
That anti squeak grease stuff seems to work, I recommend it since its cheap.
Make sure you take the master cylinder cap off (main brake fluid thing under the hood) Also it’s a good idea to wrap a rag or 2 around it because a tiny bit of fluid will prolly spit out. You shouldn’t need to top it off or anything.
The only problem I had was pushing the piston back into the caliper. Maybe I didn't do it right, but I couldn’t get it back in with a flathead or needlenose. Instead I used a C-clamp. That worked a lot better. After I did my first brake I grabbed one of those pistol grip clamps, and that worked like a champ on the rest.
As soon as I drove the car, there was little pressure on the brake pedal, pumping it a few times stiffened it right up, I assume this is normal.
After that, the petal was a little too stiff. I drove it for a little, braking like crazy, then floored it in reverse, and braked a bunch. (I read that this was a good idea to help the brakes self adjust)
After about 5 min of driving my brakes were back to normal, and of course working better cause they are new. You might notice an odor from the new brakes or possibly a few drips of brake fluid burning off of something
