Now that's good to know an Autel works with the rear calipers for retracting the parking brake! Pretty cheap way for DIY.@Hanzo here are links to front and rear brake pad maintenance and front rotor replacement along with brake bleed and bedding procedures.
The rear pad change procedure is important for you or your friend to be familiar with so not to ruin the calipers. I messed mine up the first go around so can attest to this. I use an Autel AP200 to put the EPB in and out of brake maintenance mode. There are also additional methods.
Have had to replace pads at around 22k miles. Street + some track.
Upgraded front rotors to Girodisc @22k miles. No more rock/dust noise since doing so.
First attempt @22k miles:
