- I usually rebuild the caliper myself using new boot and seal (ATE or FTE).
- Brake Hose: yes replace them (use only ATE or FTE etc.).
- Guide pin: clean with steel wool: Honda says grease it, BMW says do not. Who cares, just clean it and apply a tiny bit of grease. It gets dirty anyway with road debris etc. Once every 3-4y, clean the guide pins.
