207 front brake discs, help!

robster83 · 10-04-2009, 12:23 PM

Hey guys, hope fully this will be an easy one for you.
Im trying to change the front discs and pads on a 207 (2007, 57 plate).
The mintex discs ive been sent are 266mm however the car measures 283mm, im assuming these are completely wrong?
Also the disc will not come away from the hub at all, ive heard some versions needs the hub nut in the centre removingis this correct?

Cheers for the help in advance!

You will need the correct size discs. No the hub nut wont need to come off, provided you have removed the 2 retaining screws on the disc all it needs is a whack on the back with a decent hammer.

Thought so, I think they are just really rusted on, any tips other than wd40 and a large hammer?. Did a bit of research on the mintex websibe, seems ive been sent the wrong package :-( order mdk0191 but got mdk 0197.
Thanks for the response bluetyler!

you'll likely need an impact driver.
