Title: S1 Fuvia coupe front / rear disc removal procedure + tools needed Post by: julian67 on 20 February, 2024, 05:03:26 PM Due to my car not been driven for a long time, both front / rear brake discs are rusty.
I tried sand paper but the discs are still rusty. What is the procedure + tools needed to remove front / rear discs? Any advice most welcomed.

And for the same reason cautious with the angle grinder even having washed everything down.

Will see if the old pads can clean up the rust on the calipers. If not, I'll have to remove them.
