Morning, so I had three days off, so what do you do, you change the front discs to slotted and drilled ones, painted black, repaint the calipers red ( Brembos fitted as standard ) and put in a new pair of pads. Good idea one may think, however when I came to the nearside wheel, the caliper bolts would not come undo, they cracked easy enough with a 600mm pry bar, but the bolts are just as tight 3 full turns later, and in fact seemed to be getting stiffer. After an hour of messing about, loads of wd40 and tightening/untightening I gave up and put it all back togeather, plus it had stated to rain
So, as the drivers side was very easy to do, with nothing over tight, why is the passenger side beginning to turn into a nightmare, I honestly think something would have snapped if I would have carried on, a 600m pry bar with me pulling down on it with all my might can't be doing the bolt, or myself any good
So guys, what's my next step? 07,TDV8,Black, Black Heated leather all round, Rear Entertainment with Headpones & Remote, TV, DVD, Pure Dab Digital Radio, Sidesteps, Adaptive Headlights, sunroof, now working fuel burning heater )))
