 FIAT Panda 4x4 - 08 1.3 Removal of Discs - Notdoctorchris
I've removed many brake discs in my time and sometimes they fall away quite easily.
However, there are times when a bit of force is needed and I usually use a few hammer blows at the back of the disc, rotating the disc by about 90 degrees between blows.
Some say that this can damage the wheel bearings. Has anyone ever had a wheel bearing failure as a result of this? How do others persuade discs to come off? Some recommend a bit of heat but I don't have oxyacet so it isn't really practical.
