Another question. I'm not done yet with the job, have to do the rear tomorrow and than bleed the system. I noticed that the front drivers side wheel spins freely with the new pads, but the psg side is hard to turn. Without the wheel installed I wasn't able to turn it all, will this correct it self when the fluid is flushed and the pads settle?

With my Volvo there is a specific procedure you have to do after new pads are installed; you bring the car up to 20mph and press the brake softly until you come almost to a stop, without stopping you accelerate to 40mph and do the same. Is there something similar with a W126/123?
