| Rear Brake Problem *URGENT HELP* |
|
I'm in the middle if changing my rear discs but I cant undo the Torx screw that holds the disc on!
I've already snapped 2 of the T50 adaptors trying to undo, they just twist under the prssure. Whoever has done it before has really tightened it!
Is there another way that it can be done? Am I doing something wrong?
Urgent help would be appreciated, as at the moment, the cars up in the air unable to be put back on the road 
Thanks
Ade

Normally when something is this tight and you have tried penetrating fluid, the only other option would be to apply some heat to the area around the bolt to expand the metal. Don't know if you have enough space around this area to get in with a blowtorch or similar. Also would be worth trying to hammer the torx bit onto the bolt and "shock" the threads, this might help break their grip.
