Front Brake Disc Removal - Help

Hi,

In middle of repalcing the front hub, but struggling to get brake disc off. Tried some gentle persuasion with hammer on edge of disc, but not budging. What next? Heat?

Thanks in advance.

You've removed the Torx bolt I assume?

Quick update. Disc stil not coming off so have taken off the whole assembly and going to garage to see if it can be pressed off.

Next issue I have is changing the lower arm. Followed the guide and now got to last bolt to come off and the bush is seized to nut, so next question is where and how do I cut? Any suggestions?

Mine was seized on the other week and no end of "persuasion" would shift it. Quick squirt of WD40 and it popped straight off with the next tap. Just remeber to to use brake cleaner on the disk before putting it back on again Very Happy
