Hi all,
Bought some new rear discs, pads + bearings for m'gti as the old ones look pretty worn - all went fine until tried to undo the two allen bolts that hold the calipers onto the rear arm... Completely seized + I now have one that is rounded off in the actual bolt (never had that happen before) and the upper is still seized solid but with an intact drive cos i chickened out of rounding that off, mainly because it it so difficult to get at...Have tried heating, mole wrench (in desperation) and liberal amounts of wd40. Even though about grinding the heads off but don't think it'll work...Any suggestions anyone? Not gonna try it again until knuckles have healed (ouch ouch ouch...)
