Car Forum / Peugeot Cars / October 2005106 front discs
I am trying to fit new front discs to my 106, does anyone know do I need a special kind of socket to undo the caliper ? Have tried ordinary sockets but dont fit, weid kind of head on bolt. Or is there another way to fit them. > I am trying to fit new front discs to my 106, does anyone know do I need a > special kind of socket to undo the caliper ? > Have tried ordinary sockets but dont fit, weid kind of head on bolt. > Or is there another way to fit them. How old is your 106? I did the job on a 1995 1.5D without removing the caliper, the disk slid out without fouling on it. A dead easy job, only took about an hour all-in and I'm no mechanic :-) Matt >> I am trying to fit new front discs to my 106, does anyone know do I need a >> special kind of socket to undo the caliper ?

You shouldn't need to remove the caliper, just the pads then the disc should slide out. >>I am trying to fit new front discs to my 106, does anyone know do I need a >> special kind of socket to undo the caliper ?

The callipers have pentagonal nuts on them rather than hexagonal. It caught me out when I tried to remove them once.
