Give that man his posts back  :D  :y

Dust shield on passenger side was very close to the disc, too close, rotating the wheel with the pads out, could hear slight noise, bit if 'manual' adjustment with a screwdriver bending it out again, all is well. Took it up the Rugby club car park, span it around, no problems  :)

Also cheers to Ferrari Jason for describing them

MarkDTM, only read your post as i got in  :( But i did screw one bolt in so i could spin the disc faster

after you had taken the wheel off did you turn the steering by grabing the disc & caliper by any chance.
