I would wait for a garage etc but use the car at the moment doing 210 miles per day !
Any advise would be more than welcomed.
Nope, easily doable at home.

For the parking brake you just disconnect it and you can manually wind it back with a torx bit. Otherwise it's a regular old pad change.
Disconnect as in unplug control in the trunk?
