Brake Discs stuck, how to remove!
« on: 22 May 2012, 11:37 »
I am replacing my brother brake discs on his mk6.5 fiesta and they are stuck on like a B***h any ideas how to get them off?? urgently?

Preferable without heating it up as i don't have the tools for that?

Thanks Harry

Have they got the little clips on the wheel threads?

If not shocking them off carefully is the way.

Don't just smash the disc as hard as you can outwards though, you could damage the bearing.

Plus Gass is like WD40 but a million times better LOL.

ask at a Ford dealer if there is any reason they wont come off.

If theres nothing stopping it.  Just bray it with a hammer.

Sure fiesta's are just caliper off, carrier off and the retaining screw.
