Wrong Discs?

[westygt4]

hi i have just bought a gt four st205 and have noticed a knock from osf brake, i removed wheel and found brake disc moving on hub/wheelstuds (like disc stud holes too large)the car had genuine discs and pads fittted 5 months ago,ichecked part invoice and front discs have 2 differant numbers t43512-20610 and t43516-20010 can any one tell me if this is correct ,also there are no securing bolt/screws holding discs on to hub?

some cars dont have hub to disc bolts, its tightened when the wheel is placed , if the discs are different you should be able to see visibly also braking would be shocking i'd imagine.the gt4 st205 discs are unique and fit no other motor ;)

hi the brakes feel ok (pedal alittle soft )but osf sometimes squeeks and when i start engine or apply the brakes i get a little knock ive checked bearing and cv/drive shaft ,all ok but with wheel removed i can move disc slightly on wheel studs does this sound right?. i'll phone toyota in morning and check part numbers on a completly differant subject i have to come to a complete standstill to select 1st gear are all gt4s this way?

squeek is common , usually just moisture and overnight rust on discs , mine does the same.pedal is soft due to abs if its fitted.knock maybe superstrut suspension figure of 8 and camber control arm on the way out. you can move the discs with the wheel off , perfectly normal.GEARS - can you select third gear . is first stiff to engage only with the engine running , you may need new gear selector bearings on the gearbox , they have rubber ones as standard with a steel bush in the centre , i changed mine for roller bearings , which can be found on eBay , makes gear changes sooo much easier , there is also a rod under the clutch pedal you can alter as the gt4 is fluid clutch it needs to be spot on in adjustment

cheers i will have a look i can get all gears at standstill and all others can be selected when moving but have to stop to select 1st javascript:emoticon('')other than these small fault its a great car and a tad faster than my camper van

left and right discs do have different part numbers. Try new pads first before anything.

The knocking could be worn out suspension

[westygt4]

if the suspension is worn can i up grade and what to or should i stick to standed parts is it much of a job to change?

if its superstrut parts you are looking at 450 quid each side for all 3 parts plus labour most common at 60 to 70 k miles , you get a knocking at minus 10 mph then it gets worse and worse. its down to the arm 1 and fig 8 , which will set you back 293 quid plus labour , as it acts as the cars steering its important not to ignore it or 1 day you may regret it.
