and i bet they arent the same way. and yes i know what they look like since i've done it 3 times. they wont press right out of the back. why is it that the 4th and 5th gens have the 4 bolt holding the rotor from the back and the 6th gens dont? the 6th gen rotors and held on by 2 screws unlike the 4th and 5th gens. why arent the rotors the same? have you ever done a 6th gen?

 

you guaranteed that you were right and havent proven me wrong

so am i right or wrong?

show me up big powerful H22

 

Ok..
My attemp at doing this has failed.
I was able to get the spindel off but couldn't get the 2 screws out.
Does anyone have any sugestion on this process?

 

if youre talking about the 2 screws that r holding on the rotor then you should use an impact screwdriver. what it is is a big screwdriver that you hit the end of it with a hammer and it will slowly turn out the screw. then once you break it free just use a regular screwdriver

 

Is this the only way to do it?
I don't have a impact screwdriver.
Is it exspensive? Should I buy one?
Thanks for the help

 

JayDub you have a PM explaining everything

 

come on Xoned. you guaranteed me that i was wrong. show me i'm wrong and i'll shut up

 

Ok...I wasn't able to do it but found out that it's not the same as the link explains for the 5th gen Accord. You can't get to the studs after you take off the caliper mounting bracket. There's a hub or what ever you call it on the other side of the rotor that prevents the stud from comming out the back of the rotor. So I took off the rotor that is held on with two screws that were so tight that I almost gave up. Once you take the rotor off I was told you can get that hub off with a block of wood but it's best to have a shop do it with a press that pulls it off evenly.

 

thanks Jay. Xoned do you still guarantee me that the 5th and 6th gen spindles are exactly the same?

 

I took my car to Midas today to have the stud replaced.
I waited for service longer than it took the guy to fix it (15min tops).
It only cost me $40.33
