Swapping Out Your Disc Brake Rotors — TRW Style
> Disc brake rotors are the unsung heroes in your Mitsubishi Colt or Mirage's braking setup. They take a hammering every time you hit the brakes, and after a while, they wear down. That means less stopping power, especially when you're battling Auckland traffic or cruising down the dusty metal tracks of the South Island.
Uh Oh, Time for New Rotors If You're Seeing This:
• Brakes sound like a flock of seagulls (squealing).
• Your steering wheel's doing the Macarena when you brake (vibration).
• Takes longer to stop than a overloaded ute.
• Rotors look like they've been attacked by a grinder (scoring).
• Your brake pads are wearing out unevenly.
WOF Woes?
Worn rotors are a real WOF killer here in NZ. They gotta be thick enough and free from cracks to pass the test. Otherwise, it's a guaranteed fail and a trip back to the workshop.
DIY or Get a Pro?
Difficulty: 6/10
Time Needed: 1-2 hours per rotor
Gear You'll Need: Jack, stands, lug wrench, socket set, torque wrench, brake cleaner, and maybe a brake caliper tool. Plus a cafe lunch.
🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
• Safety First, Eh?: Never, ever get under your Colt or Mirage when it's supported only by a jack. Use proper jack stands. Safety glasses are a no-brainer to keep the brake dust out of your peepers.
• Cleanliness Counts: Brake dust is nasty stuff. Give everything a good blast with Brake Cleaner before you start pulling things apart. It'll make the job much nicer and safer.
• Protect Your Investment: A little dab of anti-seize caliper grease on the right spots will keep things moving smoothly and prevent future headaches. Plus Nitrile Gloves will keep your hands clean.
Bob's Two Cents
Worn brake rotors? No good, mate. Get them sorted to keep your Mitsubishi Colt or Mirage safe as houses. TRW rotors (DF7334S) are top-notch. Give Bob a shout at Bob's Shop, and he'll sort you out with the right bits for your Colt or Mirage!
Fitment Notes
Double-check that the new rotor fits your Mitsubishi Colt or Mirage like a glove. Rotor sizes and bolt patterns can vary, so get it right.

• Brake Dust Protection: Keep a pack of Nitrile Gloves handy to protect your hands from grease and dust.
• Clean and Prep: Use Brake Cleaner to clean the anti-corrosion shipping oil off the new rotors before mounting the calipers.
• Lubrication: Apply caliper grease to caliper slide pins and pad contact points to prevent squealing.
