I just replaced my front disks and pads.
Now the car won't shift in first gear or reverse when engine is running. It shifts fine when engine is turned off. What can that be?
Careful; you could get called Urby for that! (he once almost missed an Ace meeting for the same reason)Fool I am. I left my hood open, which will prevent shifting. Didn't know that problem solved
If you mix one blue with one yellow you get the braking effect equivalent to green.Hi about the colors (Red, Yellow, blue or orange) brake EBC
what´s the diference ?
Sit on the floor facing the disk. kick disk with heel of sturdy boot, alternate left and right foot.Hi all
Just changing my front discs now but after removing the 13mm bolts, the old disc won't come off.
Any advice on how to tackle it? I've tried a rubber mallet but it won't budge.
Cheers

I've tried that but still no good. Any other ideas?Sit on the floor facing the disk. kick disk with heel of sturdy boot, alternate left and right foot.
maybe re-fit wheel and get more leverage
Really...Just the old case of two dissimilar metals....

Seems like there should be a better method. What's holding the disk to the hub? I'll have a go with a puller next I think.
Personally, Id seek out a man-sized puller...!
I remember a garage tech complaining that Id fitted the new alloys to my van, without anything to stop the wheels glueing themselves to the hubs ( I use a ceramic grease these days ).. He ended up swinging a sledge hammer at them...!!!!
It was one of those " Can you just flip my wheels front to rear for me as you have it on the lift, mate..!!??"
