Brake discs — inspection, removal and installation (Renault Espace I)

1. Brake discs must not be ground and must be replaced if they are excessively worn. Brake disc wear must not exceed 0.5 mm on both sides of the disc. Check the brake disc for runout. To do this, attach a micrometer with a dial so that the measuring finger is positioned at a diameter of 210 mm on the outer side. When the disc rotates, the arrow should not deviate more than 0.07 mm.

2. To remove the disc, first remove the brake pads as described earlier. Unscrew both bolts (see illustration 6.1), after which you can remove the caliper. Unscrew both bolts from the end. To do this, you will need a screwdriver with a shaped blade. If the disk is jammed, hit it with a rubber mallet.

3. Install the brake disc in the reverse order. Tighten both caliper bolts to a tightening torque of 100 Nm.

4. Finally, reinstall the brake pads as described earlier.

5. Take a test drive and check the braking process. Sometimes it will take some time for the braking to occur at full power.
