Disks and pads - anything obscure when changing them?
Hi again.
I was reading through the service history of the new Punto Twinair late last night and noticed an advisory on the last service about a ware lip on the disks.
Didn't think much about it as I was expecting it would be normal ware of a couple MM.
When washing the car this morning I noticed the biggest badest ware lip I've ever seen on a disk... dam I missed it when buying the car but hay ho.
These are vented disks so I'm not wanting to leave them much longer.
Having seen this in the Panda section I thought I best check
I know my Panda survived OK, but is there anything to worry about when pushing back the calliper pistons on a Punto?
Also is there anywhere I can get the torque wrench settings from please? Think they are about the same for Uno / Brava / panda but it would be nice to know.
Probably going to need to know...
Wheel bolts (probably 86Nm for alloy wheels)
Calliper to carrier bolts
Calliper carrier to stub axle bolts
Bolts that hold disk to hub (no not the hub nuts)
Thanks in advance

... I was going to ask about front pads as to wether they had the " Astra mk 3" syndrome , if you pushed back piston without clamping pipe and releasing the bleed nipple you rendered the master cylinder u/s due to turning the seals back on thereselves.
