BRAKES!!

[Advan182]

Anybody know the price of full all round discs and pads for 182 and labour? (genuine)

 

[Da]

ALOT!!! Seriously though it'll be very expensive through renault!

 

[dick]

do it yourself, dead easy, torx bits (well bit - t40) , screwdriver, hammer, copper grease, and bout 2 sockets and a breaker bar

 

[Big Iain]

thats if the torx screws come out! fuckin no need for how tight some people make these!!

have a drill bit ready for when they dont!!!

 

[Da]

yeah I drilled mine on the old 1.2! There was no way on this earth they were coming out in one piece! Why Renault use Torx bolts I'll never know! :dapprove:

 

[dick]

because there easier for the machines.

use an impact driver, got mine out with one gentle (ish) tap
or alternatively, undo the torx bits before you take the caliper off, have a mate foot on the brake, then undo it, because the wheel wqill want to turn.

actually, i needed a puller to put some stress on the discs, before i hit um.

I did! I even broke Torx bits doing it. Over 2 days I came to the conclusion that drilling them out was the only way I would get the disks changed.
