How to change the front discs on a Peugeot 307SW?

Does anyone know how to change the front discs on a peugeot 307 SW please

thanks for all the help, been told by Peugeot that you need a special tool to change the brakes? Is this the case, they won't sell me the tool, going to attempt this over the weekend?

Yep - not a difficult one. The caliper which operates the brake pads has to be removed and should be strapped up out of the way, followed by the caliper fixing bracket (2 bolts). With this out of the way, the discs themselves are held onto the hub by 2 torx screws. With these undone, the disc can come free.

remove wheel, undo 13mm bolt on caliper, lift up caliper and pull out top slide on caliper. remove brake pads. undo torx 55 bolts holding caliper yoke on. undo torx 30 screws from disc and pull disc off. clean off old brake dust and rust off everyhere. push back piston in caliper and refit everything you undid. do same other side.
