Well I FINALLY got a set of rear pads and what should be a easy has went to sum beww. caliber is off, now that little tinny flat headed bolt/screw whatever is stuck. I damn near have the head all the way stripped trying to break it loose, and i finally resorted to using some viscripes and clamping on in-between the caliber. and then just smacking it with a hammer.......... i know. so any ideas on how to get this little **** ant loose before i end up with no back brakes. lol

 

Consult a technical manual maybe? I dunno. Once or twice, I have taken a ride into the shop for some BS thing like getting a bolt loose. Better than screwing it up and having to tap it out.

 

Try a little oil, soaked in a cloth pad over the bolt for a few hours, sounds like the aluminium has corroded (white powder) inside the thread, may help, otherwise, take it to the shop, before you totally root it.

 

Get help from someone that knows what there doing before you brake something or kill yourself when the brakes don't work or just lock up!

 

my old f3 had the same problem i drilled out the little bolt and didnt even touch the inner screw if you tale your time its fairly simple!!
