Three great reply's guys. Going to try and cover a reply to all 3. Ive had the car up on stands, wheels off, and run the transmission engaged in second and watched the inbalance. Both discs on one full rotation go from touching the inner pad (leaving a gap to the outer pad) through 180 degrees to touching the outer pad (leaving a gap then to the inner. This was observed with the caliper folded up. Its visible also using the disc cut out in the pad carrier. Now ive changed the discs, and its still running untrue. I stripped the hubs off my self, but had the bearings switched by my MOT mechanic, using a press at the garage. This is on BOTH front wheels. He had to use a little heat to remove the old circlips, as they were rusted in. When a drive shaft passes through a hub, which part or how is the bearing kept central by tightening up the nut?. Thanks :-)
