Rear Disc help with pic attatched

[pridzz]

Cut a long story short a mate owed me a favour and offered to do the rear disc and pads ( Discs we're complete with abs ring and bearing )

Noticed somthing wasnt right, Looked underneath and I can see that inside of the disc is rubbing as I can see shiny metal ( Were arrow is pointing at disc ) I no its not a clio disc btw

Anyone had this before, Im thinking he hasnt put the spacer that goes on the stub behinde the disc?

Its causing all sorts of probs but just want to give him a heads up if anyone else has had the same prob?

Regards Tom

he has left the spacer off it needs refitting if its not been thrown out. also make sure they are torqued up to 175nm

Defo left the spacer out I'm afraid.Flat face faces outwards when fitting them.

Don't drive it any more until it's fixed.Don't beat him up about it,plenty have left them out by mistake.

Nah its sat until he can repair it tomorrow - Nah he done it as a favour and its just one of those things unless you've done them before! Ive done a fair few miles tho with it like that - Brakes seemed fine and hadnt missed a beat? Hopfully ive not done any damage!

You maybe lucky,usually when this is missed out,when tightening the hub nut to correct torque,the wheel will not turn.
I would check the bearings once it's done,just to make sure.

All sorted, Spacer was missing from Drivers side, ABS is still kicking in too early - Specially over bumpy surface and if I boot it ABS gets stuck on :-/

Disc are fine, Its not ABS related aparntly - Its servo related, Its only when the car is driven from standstill/rolling hard that the brake pedal goes hard for a sec then i can press the pedal
