bleeding brakes e90 2009

Hi, I will be needing to bleed my brakes this weekend.

Is there any particular process I need to undertake? I have bled brakes many times but does it need anything particular to do this on a E90 2009?

Reason being, I am getting a sticky caliper on the nearside front, so going to refurbish the caliper and change the brake pipe.

Thank you.

No special procedure except the fact that in my E91 from 2009 the brake bleeding nuts have two different sizes, one for the front wheels and the other for rear wheels. I forget the numbers but they differ by one size. Rest of it is easy. I used the plastic bottle with transparent plastic tube dipped under a layer of old brake fluid to drain the brake fluid from the bleeder screws.

Thanks for the reply.

For future reference the fronts are 11mm. Not sure on the rear.
