Some Advice Needed Please :)

Hi :rolleyes: on my travels back from Lewis at New Year my front wheel started making a scraping noise!! Thought it was the caliper/pads but on inspection today the back plate on the disc must have had a stone lodged between that and the disc which was making the noise. Can the back plate be removed and replaced(its rotten) or do i have to replace the whole disc?

Cheers from a learner lol

Its called a weather shield, mine is abit rusty, might get it cleaned up.

So can they be replaced or is a whole disc change job? Just the road i stay on is always caked in mud from tractors etc :rolleyes: especially in the winter!

You dont need to change the discs, you can just buy the sheild itself and its just 2 bolts to take the off

:rolleyes:

You could get them from subaru or just them second hand. You should get rust free 1's from a fresh import.

Am I right in saying it was stuck between the grooves of the disc rather than between the disc and a seperate part of the car,which the others referring too are a weather shield!?

It was stuck between the dust shield and the disc and when removing the stone, part of the shield broke away (its an old car lol)! But just going to remove the shield now anyway :rolleyes:
