E430 brake job, anything special to know?

I'm a fairly competent guy mechanically, I'm planning on doing the Pads r and r myself. Is there anything special to know in relation to the ABS system? Can I simply press the piston back into the caliper and remove the pads and replace with new?

Any specific brand of brake pads to avoid?

Thanx in advance

Don't forget the sensor and don't turn the rotors.
