Description

Slapping on New Disc Brake Rotors — RDA's Got Your Back
> Your Peugeot's disc brake rotors are absolutely vital. Over time, they wear down thanks to the brake pads doing their job, especially with the tough conditions our classics face. Warped or scored rotors can seriously mess with your braking.
Dead Giveaways It's Rotor Time
• Brakes squealing like a stuck pig.
• The steering wheel's doing the Macarena when you hit the brakes.
• Taking longer to pull up than a cafe lunch.
• Rotors looking more like abstract art than smooth metal.
• Brake pads wearing unevenly – dodgy!
Keen for that WOF, Bro?
Worn or damaged disc brake rotors are a classic reason for a WOF failure here in NZ. Rotors need to be above the minimum thickness and free from cracks to pass the test.
DIY or Get a Pro?
Difficulty: 6/10
Estimated Time: 2-3 hours per axle
Tools Required: Jack and stands (never get under a car supported only by a jack!), wheel wrench, socket set, torque wrench, brake cleaner, replacement brake pads (always a good idea).
🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Before you dive in, mate, safety first! Grab yourself some safety glasses to keep the crud out of your peepers, and a decent pair of nitrile gloves to keep those mitts clean. Brake dust is nasty stuff, so give everything a good blast with some Brake Cleaner before you start pulling things apart. When you're reassembling, a wee dab of anti-seize caliper grease on the threads will make life easier next time.
Expert Recommendation
Swapping out your Peugeot 505's disc brake rotors is a no-brainer for staying safe. The RDA rotors are a dependable option, but CARFIX has a range to fit your budget. Give Bob @ CARFIX a yell, and he'll sort you out with exactly what you need for your Peugeot. Pop into Bob's Shop for a yarn!
Fitment Notes
Double-check these rotors fit your Peugeot 505 or 504's year and model. Rotor diameter and thickness are key. Some models got different designs, eh.

🧰 What Else You'll Need:
• Safety First: Never work under a vehicle supported only by a jack. Always secure it on heavy-duty safety jack stands.
• 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.
