Two Piece Rotor Hardware Failure.

[Diboblo]

So, I had what I thought was the dreaded front rotor click... but this was more substantial. I pulled the wheel and found that the H-Bobbin spring clip had broken and was interfering with the outside rotor.

All in all, I had 5 spring failures.

I sourced some clips and set to replacing all 20 of them.

Here is my How-To thread:

If you are experiencing a substantial click, under heavy braking, take a look at the spring clips. You don't need to pull the wheel, to see the failure.

I only heard it, under heavy braking. In time, I'm sure it would have been a more dra.atic failure.

NOTE: These are Centric 126.63088 rotors, but of the same exact design, as the Brembos. Just trying to help identify a weak point, on any of these 2 piece rotors.

Hope this helps.

Will check mine today, only get it under extreme braking like at the track. Good call!

Do you happen to have a link to them? I am going crazy trying to look for them.

Seems like this was supposed to go to the Wiki...

That’s terrifying. Definitely a stressful thing to find. I can only hope everyone went to check on theirs after seeing this! Especially those that Daily these cars.
