I recently picked up an 03 S430 with the Sport Package and I find myself in need of new front brakes/pads.  I am relatively handy and believe I can handle this job.  A couple of questions;
 
1.  Are the disks/calipers/pads any different on the Sport Package than standard?
2.  Any suggestions on brand/type of rotors?
3.  Any suggestions on brand/type of pads?
4.  Any links to doing this brake job?
 
When I first got the vehicle there was a TON of squeeking that I could mostly eliminate with some hard braking.  Is this a typical symptom for this vehicle.  Any comments/suggestions?  Was this due to needing them replaced now (bought car 5K or so ago)?
 
Thanks in advance,
Paul
