Title: Front disc retaining bolt
Post by: flyboy1976 on January 12, 2011, 08:19:16 am

hi chaps, does anyone know if this screw/bolt that retains the disc to the hub on mk5 gti is a philips head or a torx T35 as listed in this guide below.....  and does the caliper use a standard 7mm brake tool for splitting the caliper to mounting bracket.

( I dont have a T35 bit ,hence the question)


Thanks in advance  :happy2:

It is a T35 (I did my Brakes with vRStu recently)

Im not sure on the brake tool though as i already had the R32 kit on and on that it's just 2 Huuuuuuge bolts
